Love Thy Body

Answering Hard Questions About Life and Sexuality

De: Nancy R. Pearcey

Narrado por: Ann Richardson

Are transgender people discovering their authentic self? Is the hookup culture really liberating? Does abortion lead to equality for women? Does homosexuality contradict our biological sex?

In Love Thy Body, best-selling and award-winning author Nancy Pearcey takes on the hard questions about life and sexuality. She offers a respectful but riveting exposé of the secular worldview that lies behind trendy slogans and political talking points. A former agnostic, Pearcey is a sensitive guide to the secular ideas that shape current debates. She empowers listeners to intelligently and compassionately engage today's most controversial moral and social challenges.

In a surprise shattering of stereotypes, Pearcey demonstrates that while secularism promises much, in reality it delivers little. She turns the tables on stereotypes that portray Christianity as harsh and bigoted, and invites a fresh look at its holistic, life-affirming principles: It is a worldview that matches the real world and fits with human experience.

All along, Pearcey keeps listeners entranced with gripping stories of real people wrestling with hard questions in their own lives - sharing their pain, their struggles, and their triumphs.

Must read!

This was so eye opening and sometimes scary. It is a helpful tool to becoming an ambassador of change in a hurting and confused world. Highly recommended

Profoundly insightful

This book draws incredible insight from history, philosophy, biology, logic, and biblical application in order to discern the current cultural confusion about our bodies. Pearcey not only clarifies the confusion about gender that is infiltrating society, but she also clarifies the larger confusion that has tried to separate our mind from our bodies in actions such as abortion and eating disorders. Furthermore, the author explains the problem of how our culture got to this point and then brilliantly provides the solution by understanding the incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Christ.

OUT OF THE PARK!!!

Nancy R. Pearcey hits this one OUT OF THE PARK. This gal, who started out with an attitude against Christianity as taught in her childhood, came in contact with Francis Schaeffer and her life changed. Many of us had similar experiences with Schaeffer and his writing. My two sons and I went to L'ABri and had similar experiences. I have never underlined a book more than this one. One taste of this gal's incredibly clear writing will lead you to grab her other volumes. Dr. Angus McDonald

Worth the Read for both Progressive and Conserving people

The strength of this book was it’s coherent, well-crafted, and thoughtful logical arguments. Also, the compassion of the author came through clearly, delivering hope.

The weakness was assuming there only one viable biblical interpretive method and occasionally ignoring the entire nuance of scripture when making a “biblical” argument.

Percy Packs a Powerful Christian Ethics Punch

What an eye opener. Thank God for Nancy Percy’s thorough investigation of the facts and being able to biblically counter these false arguments and expose secret agendas of groups in society that are intent on dismantling the family and our Creator. May her message spread far and wide to the glory of God and the good of community.

Rejevant Reading!

Very informative! Highly recommend to see what a war the children of today face! Read it and pray!

Wow

I thought I knew everything about abortion but I didn't. This book is amazing and every Pro-Choice person should read it. I highly recommend this book. Intellectual while being easy to relate to and understand. Very well written and narrated.

Required reading for our family

Looking forward to sharing this book w my wife and kids as they grow. An overall positive view of the christian worldview that i wish i was able to elaborate upon half as well as she does. Nonetheless this book will help me to do so

Best book on sexual ethics you will ever read

Pearcey is the expert on Biblical worldview. This is the best book on Christian sexual ethics I've ever read. The only complaint is how the chapters are organized in Audible. Otherwise, 5 stars all around.

Countercultural view of true love for one’s body

The author does an excellent job highlighting how culture, in its post-modern state, defines love for one’s body which ultimately ends up hurting not just our bodies but stable social constructs as well.
