God made our bodies male or female as a sign of our call to love. Lesson Book: 48 Pages, 2 Lessons, Softcover, Non-consumable In a culture that denies human embodiedness, this vital book forms youth to understand and embrace the complementarity of masculinity and femininity. Rather than trite stereotypes, this book equips children with the sacramental view of reality that permeates creation, particularly in being made male or female. Heroic women and men live the truth of their calling. Finally, teens learn how to navigate feelings of attraction and how to understand real love and its opposite: use. 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.
