Untwisting the Twisted | ACW229
I've been doing Exodus 90 for the past few years. One of the ascetic practices involves only listening to music that lifts the soul to God. Is this asceticism opposed to listening to popular/secular music?
I'm a 22 year old woman in college that has struggled with pornography for a few years. I've realized how porn has affected the way I see my boyfriend whom I'm planning to marry. I'm afraid of entering into marriage with these wounds. Do you have any advice?
My daugher and I attended one of your Made for More events and she was deeply moved by one of the sculptures displayed. Could you tell us more about it?

Redeeming the Wounds of Pornography | ACW227
I'm struggling with sloth and the burdens of motherhood, does the Theology of the Body have any advice?
I was exposed to pornography and I'm afraid I'll bring the wounds into my marriage. Is there any way to forget these memories?
I struggled with self hate and whenever men approach me I close down. I'm also drawn to religious life, how can I work through this?

Did Jesus and Mary have Sexual Desires?
How is it that God met Moses "face-to-face" before the incarnation? I have some fears about NFP as a soon-to-be-engaged woman and I am sometimes tempted to just use contraception. Do you have any advice? Did Jesus and Mary have sexual desires? Were they able to have sex? How did their sexuality differ from ours?

Marriage after "Detransitioning" | ACW225
How important do you think physical fitness is in light of Theology of the Body? If Satan has no body, how can he have offspring? (In Genesis it says that God will put emnity between his offspring and Eve's.) As someone who fell for the gender ideology and got a double mastectomy, what does TOB have to offer me as I am now embracing my femininity and discerning marriage with a man?
