Description

Broken families, abortion, AIDS, internet pornography, sexual abuse scandals, homosexual marriage; our Church and our world are in the course of a profound sexual crisis. Is there a way out?
For any such 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 frequently intimidates the average person.
In his previous book, Theology of the Body Explained, Christopher West offered a more detailed, six-hundred-page remark on St. John Paul II s Theology of the Body. In Theology of the Body for Beginners, West provides a short and popular summary of the saint s revolutionary teaching whilst answering big questions like:
● What is the meaning of life?
● Why did God create us male and female?
● Why is there evil on the planet and how do we overcome it?
● How do we attain true happiness {on earth|on the planet}?
● What kind of joys await us in heaven?
● How are we able to experience the love we long for in the depth of our hearts?
The first edition of Theology of the Body for Beginners (2004) quickly became an international best-seller. This freshly revised and expanded edition is based on Dr. Michael Waldstein s much improved translation of St. John Paul II s catechesis.
New for this edition:
● All quotations have been up to date with the new translation
● Key insights discovered through Dr. Waldstein s access to the St. John Paul II archives have been incorporated
● The outline of the text has been substantially reorganized to reflect the newly discovered outline of St. John Paul II s original manuscript
● St. John Paul II s hidden and up to now untranslated addresses are summarized
