Whatever is Beautiful

Through beauty we experience a glimmer of what is true and good. Through art, we experience a glimmer of that beauty. Join Christopher West and Mike Mangione & The Union as they enter into the greater mystery of what it means to be man and woman in a tour that illuminates life’s deepest questions.

A Theology of the Body Road Show

Furrow 24 Productions, in association with the Theology of the Body Institute and Ascension Press, is proud to present Fill These Hearts: God, Sex and the Universal Longing -An Evening of Beauty & Reflection on John Paul II’s Theology of the Body.

With music, light, video and other art forms, Fill These Hearts presents the message of Theology of the Body in an artistic event, couching Christopher West’s presentation in a redeemed atmosphere of art, culture and beauty, making contemplatively present in color, shape, and sound, the themes from JP II’s profound and timely work on the meaning of human sexuality.

Fill These Hearts merges the best of what we’ve come to expect from a Christopher West workshop with art, music, and culture — think of a symphony, a ballet, or an indie-rock concert for the soul…

Mike Mangione and The Union is a touring folk-rock group that combines soulful vocals with an orchestrated string section, and a literate sensibility. The band’s latest album, Tenebrae, has received accolades from all corners of the country, and was given the honor of being selected New York Magazine’s “Pick of the Week.” Indie Launchpad calls Tenebrae a “phenomenally great album.” With the themes of Theology of the Body as much of the inspiration for their music, Mike Mangione and The Union are the perfect complement to West’s inspiring presentation of TOB.
