Broken families, abortion, AIDS, Internet pornography, sexual abuse scandals, homosexual marriage, our Church and our world are in the midst of a profound sexual crisis. Is there a way out? For such a time as this have we been given Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body. Based on the words of Jesus, 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 Pope's dense scholarship often intimidates the average person. In his book, Theology of the Body Explained, Christopher West offered a more detailed, six-hundred page commentary on John Paul II's Theology of the Body. Here, he provides a short and popular summary of the Pope's revolutionary teaching. What is the meaning of life? Why did God create us male and female? Why is there evil in the world and how do we overcome it? How do we attain true happiness on earth? What kind of joys await us in heaven? How can we 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 John Paul II'­s catechesis. New for this edition: All quotations have been updated with the new translation. Key insights discovered through Dr. Waldstein's access to the John Paul II archives have been incorporated. The outline of the text has been substantially reorganized to reflect the newly discovered outline of John Paul's original manuscript. John Paul's hidden and previously untranslated addresses are summarized.

Reviews:
"First, came Pope John Paul II's writings and Wednesday Audiences which he entitled, Man and Woman He Created Them. Second, was Dr. Michael Waldstein's translation, Man and Woman He Created Them; A Theology of the Body. Third, Christopher West's Theology of the Body Explained: A Commentary on John Paul II's Man and Woman He Created Them. Fourth, is the present work by Christopher West: Theology of the Body for Beginners. John Paul's dense theological tome is a difficult read which Christopher West does a nice job of making more accessible. This work 'for beginners' is the gateway which whets the appetite for the deeper, more thorough presentations. Mr. West's presentation is organized and entertaining. It is also powerful in its ability to motivate change in your life." ~Kevin H.

"I can't put it into words... This book is an absolute must read for anyone who struggles to understand sexuality and why God created us man and woman. Your jaw will drop more than once as the book unfolds the true meaning of our sexuality." ~Jon O.

"This is a must read for all Christians. Period. It is an invitation to ponder more deeply the mystery of human sexuality. Though the text is introductory, it is a fantastic start."

"This book was absolutely amazing!!! There are just no words to describe the truths that this book contains! I wish the whole world could read this book and find out the true meaning of sexuality because sexual sin and lust has perverted our society oh so much. Once again, this book opened my eyes and transformed my life. I am a changed person." ~Agnes K.

"This is the best explanation I have ever read regarding the question of how can we be spiritual and sexual at the same time." ~Carol F.

"This has been the best book I have ever read concerning the Catholic teachings of sexuality and marriage, chastity, lust, love, contraception, everything! I'm having a hard time articulating to friends and family how much of an impact this book has had on me. All I can tell you is that no matter what you THOUGHT you knew about the Catholic teachings about sexuality, you need to read this book to get the truth. I'd be willing to bet it will impact you no matter what stage of life you are in, whether you are single or married or divorced. Everyone in the Catholic family will be forever changed after reading this." ~Michelle

"Everyone should read this book. I am a Protestant, and was referred to this book by another Protestant. It is good, helping me understand why marriage is beautiful theologically and why it is the target for so much corruption. This book has helped me understand the Trinity a little more clearly and our place in God's family. The knowledge conveyed in this book has added richness to my faith." ~Taylor J.

"May be the most beautiful book I have ever read. This book gave me goosebumps. I literally cried tears of joy. The good news revealed here is so, SO good. It touched the deepest part of me. How ironic that a celibate, older male -- John Paul II -- would be the one to strike the deepest chord imaginable in the soul of a happily married, middle-aged mom. This book affirmed things I'd felt all my life, deep in the privacy of my own heart, but had never been able to put into words and share with anyone. It's like finding out that what you've always secretly wished were true.... really IS true! You will recognize an ancient, primordial truth, inscribed in the core of your being, long-forgotten but deeply familiar and resonant. And yet, you'll see that truth in a new and different light, you'll see that it's even better than you ever could have imagined. Everything in you rejoices -- because it is the long-suppressed, well-hidden TRUTH of what a human being IS -- the awesome truth of WHO YOU ARE! Affirmation and validation are words far too weak to describe what this book means to me. It is a REVELATION -- and one that will stay with me for the rest of my life. If you read this book and engage with it, I guarantee it will change your life. I'm forever grateful to Christopher West for making this message accessible. The world is hungering and thirsting for this good news." ~Aqua M.

"Amazing. A must read. This a book that I recommend to everyone that doesn't understand the Catholic Church's stance on chastity and holiness that comes from a vow of celibacy. I understand the difference and holiness that comes with both the sacrament of marriage and a vow of celibacy. Honestly, this is great read for non-Catholics as well since St. John Paul II and Christopher West explain the values of chastity in today's secular/sexualized society. I wish I had read this when I was a teenager!" ~Jenny

"Sex has been taken over by the secular world - more than ever, the battle of the flesh is being fought online, on television, in the media. This books serves as a great starting point to help us Christians see the role our sexuality plays in God's plan. God made us man and woman for a reason, that goes beyond procreation. Christopher West helps us dive more deeply into the beauty and mystery of our sexuality." ~Chris R.
