Saint John Paul II’s revolutionizing work, the Theology of the Body (TOB) provides compelling answers to the deepest questions of our hearts: Who am I? Why am I here? How can I be happy? What is my purpose in life?
Join us for a week of life-changing videos—originally recorded at St. Therese Institute!—featuring the world-renowned TOB expert Christopher West in an exclusive course that integrates the teachings of St. John Paul II with the writings of St. Thérèse of Lisieux.
During this week you can expect your heart to come alive as you get in touch with your desires, the significance of your sexuality, and come to discover in a deeper way the meaning of your life.
Christopher West is co-founder, president, and senior lecturer of Theology of the Body Institute, and professor of theological anthropology in the jointly sponsored master’s program with Pontifex University. His global lecturing, bestselling books, multiple audio and video programs, and popular podcast Ask Christopher West (co-hosted by his wife Wendy) have made him one of the world’s most recognized teachers of St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body. West is the author of more than a dozen books, including Word Made Flesh (Cycles A, B, and C), Theology of the Body Explained, Theology of the Body for Beginners, and Good News about Sex and Marriage. His work has been featured in The New York Times, on ABC News, MSNBC, and Fox News, and on countless Catholic and evangelical media platforms.

*Spring Courses are subsidized by the St. Therese Institute so that we can provide an extremely affordable price of admission, lower than our real cost per-person. For this reason, we are unable to negotiate case-by-case fee scales for considerations like the number of meals actually taken or whether or not a guest redeems the overnight booking available to him/her.
