Our Bodies Tell God's Story

Discovering the Divine Plan for Love, Sex, and Gender

By: Christopher West

Narrated by: Kirby Heyborne

In response to a world awash in sexual chaos and gender confusion, this book offers a bold and thoroughly biblical look at the meaning of the body, sex, gender, and marriage.

Best-selling author, cultural commentator, and popular theologian Christopher West is one of the world's most recognized teachers of John Paul II's Theology of the Body. He specializes in making this teaching accessible to all Christians, with particular attention to evangelicals. As West explains, from beginning to end the Bible tells a story of marriage. It begins with the marriage of man and woman in an earthly paradise and ends with the marriage of Christ and the church in an eternal paradise.

In our post-sexual-revolution world, we need to remember that our bodies tell a divine story and proclaim the gospel itself. As male and female and in the call to become "one flesh", our bodies reveal a "great mystery" that mirrors Christ's love for the church (Eph. 5:31-32). This book provides a redemptive rather than repressive approach to sexual purity, explores the true meaning of sex and marriage, and offers a compelling vision of what it means to be created male and female.

True Awakening

this book is the gateway to hope, praise be God forever. This gives you eyes to see

TOB for non-Catholics

This book is basically theology of the body for protestants and evangelicals. If that is you and you are looking at getting into Pope John Paul II's Theology of Body this book is a good introduction.

Fantastic book!

This is the absolute best book I've ever read about human sexuality. It has changed my life. The Holy Spirit showed me a perspective that I had never before had. I highly recommend but only for those who truly want more than what see from society today.

thought-provoking

This was another thought provoking book by Christopher West. it is challenging. West's long experience studying and teaching TOB clearly explains the human body and gender.

The only thing that could have made this book better was if Christopher West narrated it himself.

The truth will set you free!

Loved it! Theology of the Body is beautiful! Christopher West's. interpretation of Saint JP II's teaching is clear, concise and engaging!
