The Body Matters: The Body Teaches Many Lessons (Level 1 Book 1)

The body teaches what being human means, the importance of self-control, and how we are made to care for one another. Lesson Book: 48 Pages, 2 Lessons, Softcover, Non-consumable This book shows that our bodies teach us who we are, how we feel, and what we need. By observing the bodies of others, children can learn about others too. Children also learn the value of self-control which is the foundation for loving others. Finally, children learn how the Body of Christ and the Holy Mass reveal God’s love for them. The Theology of the Body is a positive, beautiful approach to the truth of the body and its meaning. In a culture where the body is considered “an enemy to freedom,” Saint John Paul’s Theology of the Body is necessary more than ever. The Body Matters lesson books series teaches the truths about the body in an accessible, age-appropriate way. It is a great resource for parents, Faith Formation programs and Catholic schools to help children see the sacredness of the body. Here you can find Saint John Paul’s teachings on the body rendered in language accessible to children, with beautiful illustrations, practical examples and solid Catholic theology.
