Product Description
by Philokalia Books (Author), Pope John Paul II (Author)
"This fully ecumenical understanding of sexuality is less about following the rules than about discovering the freedom of living in truth." -First Things
In September of 1979, about a year after becoming pope, John Paul II began a series of reflections on love, sexuality, and the human person. These 15-minute talks, which continued for several years, became known collectively as the "Theology of the Body." This book paraphrases 86 of Pope John Paul II's talks in easy-to-understand English. "An absolute 'must have' for Catholic Studies reference and resource shelves." -Midwest Book Review "Masterfully distills the essence of the pope's talks." -National Catholic Register "Succeeds in bringing papal teaching on the body within the reach of the average reader."-The British Columbia Catholic
