In this episode, I interview my friend, mentor, and college advisor, Dr. Nathan Schlueter. Dr. Schlueter is Professor of Philosophy and Religion at Hillsdale College who introduced me to Roman Catholic Theology of the Body, as outlined by Pope John Paul II (JPII).
Dr. Schlueter and I discuss JPII’s Theology of the Body, why it was needed in the 20th century, and why it’s still relevant today. You can check out more of Dr. Schlueter’s work here.
