Theology of the Body for Beginners

Broken families, abortion, AIDS, internet pornography, sexual abuse scandals, homosexual marriage; our Church and our world are in the midst of a profound sexual crisis. Is there a way out? For such a time as this have we been given St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body. Based on the words of Jesus, St. John Paul II’s famous reflections on the body and sex take us to the root of the modern crisis and chart the path to an authentic sexual liberation. Yet the saint’s dense scholarship often intimidates the average person. Christopher West explains the teaching in easy to understand language that reaches the reader.
