Theology of the Body Evangelization Team
Between 1979 and 1984, Pope St. John Paul II delivered a series of Wednesday audiences that eventually became known as the Theology of the Body (TOB). This profound teaching offered what St. John Paul called an “adequate anthropology”—an examination of what it means to be human, made in God’s image and likeness, and how that reality is made visible through the human body, giving a Sacramental View of Reality.
Founded on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception in 2001, The Theology of the Body Evangelization Team, known as TOBET, seeks to share this life-affirming message of TOB with audiences of all ages (in English and Spanish) through educational resources: books, programs, talks, and seminars offering hope and healing to a culture in need. TOBET has recently grown exponentially, reaching Catholics not only in the United States, but now internationally, including Australia, the Philippines, Colombia, Canada, with others on the horizon. TOBET is here for the Church in such a time as this.
