General Description:

Fr. Loya addresses the problem of “either/or” when it comes to men looking at women. Typically men either look at women and treat them as an object of lust or look away from women and thereby treat them as an object of temptation. Either way men see women as objects rather than the persons whom God created them to be. Fr. Loya demonstrates, through works of art and his own sketches, how men can begin to see women through the peace of the interior gaze.  This approach not only helps to combat the problem of pornography, but helps with the constant barrage of images from the billboards, media and magazines as well. This insightful and entertaining presentation will bring hope and freedom to men and women alike.

About the author/speaker:  Fr. Thomas J. Loya is currently the pastor of Annunciation of the Mother of God Byzantine Catholic Church in Chicago, IL and the Eastern Catholic spiritual advisor for TOBIA.
