Message: “Embracing the Body with Tara Owens”

The StoryMen welcome author and Spiritual Director Tara Owens to discuss what it means to have bodies. We investigate why the Church struggles to embrace embodied existence, the power of touch, and why giving up contacts for Lent is more than a First World Problem. Plus, win a copy of Tara’s excellent book!
