Information Central

There is so much information in this leader's guide - options for activities, music/video resources from popular media, Bible references and pertinent stories to explain and enhance the THEOLOGY OF THE BODY FOR TEENS DVD set. We are using this with a high school youth group. I think the DVD's are essential to teens opening their hearts and minds to the information, so I recommend you not try to save money by doing the class without them.

wave of the future in catechesis

This is a fantastic catechetical tool. I just mentioned it to 11th graders I know and they loved the concept! FINALLY we realize that the key to teaching sexuality to young people is to convey: the mystery of the human person, the dignity of self & other, the beauty of covenant between spouses & God. WOW. Just what we need to turn this promiscuous culture on its ear and give them some REAL Reasons to live the commandments. "Our Father knows best!"

Excellent Book for leaders

This book goes step by step through the Theology of the Body for Teens to help the leader guide meaningful discussions. It is easy to understand and well written. There are suggestions for games to play with the teens to help them in groups. This book is a valuable rescource.

Every Adult Needs to Read This

This extremely user-friendly book reveals the powerful, mysterious and beautiful biblical teaching of John Paul II in EASY, understandable format. Great for teens, even better for adults!

Informative and helpful

I haven't gotten too far into the leaders guide, but so far it has been VERY insightful about human sexuality and the dignity we deserve as humans. It's also helpful for people who teach teenagers or work with them. There are great activities in the book, so there is time to work and play!
