Compendium on the Family and Human Life

By Catholic Church

"The nuclear family that develops from marriage is the basic cell of society," said Pope St. John Paul II. Now more than ever, that basic cell is under pressure from modern society. It can be hard to hear the Church's voice of Truth in the midst of all the noise.

In this book, you will find over a decade's worth of documents and addresses, letters and speeches, all explaining the Church's view of marriage, the family, and the sacredness of human life. Together in one volume, for the first time, they are a comprehensive reference work as well as a source of personal inspiration and growth. Whether you are a pastor, parent or teacher, this book will help you understand and explain the eternal truths of your faith.
