Sets a Foundation

Very good overview. Doesn't go that in depth but that was expected. Each chapter varies in length but are no more than 4 minutes long.

This narration is very uninspired.

I hate to give negative points because of narration but this is the most dry and unemotional narration I have ever heard for a topic that should inspire passion. I was really interested in this book but was tempted to return it because listening was so hard due to monotone delivery. Trying to get through still. Might just buy physical book.

That Was Great!

Everybody should read this! Everybody! It would help them understand that there's so much depth to life and that God made man and woman to be people made in His image.

It made me feel free

I've known about this book for some time. But to actually read it is to be taught about freedom in a way I never thought possible. As a man I am constantly confronted with magnified sexuality. So much so that I really felt like it was a battle too powerful to win. But this simple and beautiful book was like an unforseen refreshment of spirit. It should be required reading for a restoration of sanity in a lust polluted world.

Great Information, but be Prepared to Listen Again

There is some great content and concepts in here, but some of the language went over my head. A 2nd listen is definitely needed. If you want to know what God really envisioned for love, sex, and marriage, look no further.

A perfect book

A fantastic book that I found to be developmental and maturative for a young man coming of age such as myself. I found this book highly relatable and an amazing read. I further highly recommend this book.

Loved it

my son was studying theology of the body for teens in school. I used this to get smart quick in order to better guide conversations at home. this is a fantastic theological work on human dignity and the proper expression of love and respect for each other.

A great gift for newly weds.

This book should at least be in the home of all Catholic families. Excellent book.
