Creation awakens wonder and awe in humans. Wonder draws us in, while awe holds us back. Together, wonder and awe form reverence. If we respond to our bodies and the bodies of others with reverence, we enter more deeply into friendships and love. Reverence and love are the antidotes to distraction or a misdirected desire to take control. Reverence is especially needed at Mass where we meet Jesus bodily in the Eucharist.

The Theology of the Body is a positive, beautiful approach to the truth of the body and its meaning. In a culture where the body is considered “an enemy to freedom,” Saint John Paul’s Theology of the Body is necessary more than ever. The Body Matters lesson books series teaches the truths about the body in an accessible, age-appropriate way. It is a great resource for parents, Faith Formation programs and Catholic schools to help children see the sacredness of the body. Here you can find Saint John Paul’s teachings on the body rendered in language accessible to children, with beautiful illustrations, practical examples and solid Catholic theology.
