Co-hosts, Sr Jane Kamathi and Fr Stan Chu Ilo discuss sex, sexuality, and the taboos around them in Africa. They delve into the beauty of sex, sexuality, and the theology of the body. They answer the questions: Why are people uncomfortable to talk about sexual issues or to discuss about their sexuality in Africa? Why are people unwilling to open up about the traumas and abuses they have suffered in relationship? Why don't we pray often in our church to God for our sexuality and our relationships? And why are people not opening up about their struggles with their sexuality or their sexual relationship, especially if things are not working well? This episode is the first in our synodal conversations on some of the important and sometimes uncomfortable topics that we believe we need to deepen an understanding of so that the people of God could be guided on how to offer up their bodies to God and to one another. We all are invited to live fully the beauty of our sexuality and entire being as a gift to God and to others according to the will of God.
