Theology of the Body Made Simple / Anthony Percy

We live in a world dedicated to consumption. As a consequence people are themselves treated as consumer objects. They are used and discarded. Sex becomes a 'casual indoor sport'. Sex becomes nothing other than another opportunity for betrayal. In his Theology of the Body, John Paul II proclaims another way of thinking and living. He says that we human beings are bodily persons.

Our bodies are important. Our bodies are symbolic. Our bodies are meant for love. Our bodies have been made free and redeemed by Christ. Theology of the Body Made Simple communicates that the universal vocation of all humanity is to love as a sincere gift of self. The book will introduce you to the basic experiences and concepts taught by Pope John Paul II. It will give you confidence: confidence to know who you are and in your ability to speak the truth in love.
