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.

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.

The Superman of Human Sexual Theology

No holds barred Super Synopsis of a dynamite Theological Treatment on Human Sexuality! The contents of an introductory and intermediate dissertation of a subject hidden from view to the general audience for far too long.

A must listen for Every Christian or Catholic who wants to hear an accurate and authoritative voice on the subject of knowing and experiencing your own human sexuality, growth, and development in a profoundly Christian, and or Catholic, and or mystical manner and those interested in counseling others on true human sexuality.

The science, insights, metaphysics, and revelations on human sexual anthropology and human sexual theology are pro creatively powerful and powerfully delivered.

The Simple Language format yields a most sure, holistic yet concrete, biblically based, natural science, and metaphysical guide to human sexuality.

A great group or private Bible study, retreat topic or private meditation to gain a strong understanding of this highly neglected theological subject.

I’d recommend this listen to students and teachers of every religion including the new atheist and woke ideologies, new age, Buddhist, Krishna, Hindu, Protestants and nonreligious spiritual. And every Catholic, Roman, Orthodox and everyone in between.

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.
