Product Description

•••••

This masterful tome expertly defends the Church's rich doctrines on marriage, the priesthood, and religious life. Using ancient and current sources, pagan and Christian, Eastern Christian and Western, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski will teach you:

The four kinds of marriage (can you guess them?) and four reasons why marriage is noble
What the beating heart of marriage and family is and what marriage cannot exist without
The lessons we can learn from the marriage of Mary and Joseph
The two greatest mercies of God (they will surprise you!)
Three ways to explain the meaning of sexuality to your children
Sixteen arguments and replies regarding priestly celibacy

Dr. Kwasniewski illustrates that the dignity of marriage and family, as well as the evils assembled against them—pornography, self-gratification, premarital sex, divorce, contraception, and abortion—can and should be regarded not only for what they are, but also for what they denote spiritually and cosmically.

Dr. Kwasniewki extols the sacramental dignity of the human body, shines the light of faith and reason on fundamental truths about vocation and the gift of self, and renews confidence in the wisdom of Holy Mother Church in the midst of a growing totalitarianism hell-bent on diluting, relativizing, stigmatising, and ultimately obliterating chaste and fruitful love.
