The World Keeps Turnin'

A quick word from our mystical poet Trevor Hall!

The world keeps turnin'
It gets merry like a merry go 'roundIt gets cold like a frozen winterWell I change like summer fallBut I know love is all in allSeeds we're always sowingThe grace is always blowingWe've just got to lift the sailAnd we're bound to hit the shoreWe'll finally calm this storm...

- Trevor Hall

What is the TOB?

Simply stated, the Theology of the Body is Pope John Paul II's biblical reflection on what it means to be human, male and female, created in the image of God. The human body is not just a biological organism bound by instinct, but a theological reality called to freedom! And in our hearts we find a call to love and communion with each other as man and woman. There is something of the Divine, something touching on the Infinite in this love, and it's reflected in our music, our movies, our poetry. The call to love sets us apart from all the rest of creation!
