Abstract

ABSTRACT: The Wednesday addresses by Pope John Paul II, published as The Theology of the Body , can provide some insights into how one should approach the sacred liturgy. The liturgy presents the mysteries of the life of Christ, both those of his life on earth and those of his Mystical Body, the Church. This article, drawing upon the incarnational theological anthropology of Pope John Paul II, explores the notion of sacred liturgy as the “language” of the Church. Through this lens, the various liturgical gestures and actions are infused with a deeper meaning, making them an apt means and medium for expressing the Mystical character of the Church.
