Freedom to Love, Leader's Set

What exactly is freedom? According to the world, freedom is the power to do anything you want, whenever you want, with whomever you want. But has this resulted in strong relationships, families, or communities? In truth, since the "sexual revolution," the exact opposite has occurred. Every day, we witness rampant sexual turmoil, exploitation, destroyed families, and a great deal of pain—all as a result of freedom's abuse and misunderstanding.

Recognizing the world's perplexity, St. John Paul II delivered the Theology of the Body (TOB) lectures, which give a profound message of love and human sexuality. He turned the mistaken notion of freedom on its head, claiming that true freedom is unselfish, not selfish. He emphasized that true freedom exists for the sake of love, and that genuine freedom always asks, "What is the good of the other person?" rather than "What is in it for me?"

Popular author and broadcaster Christopher West lays out a clear and refreshing road map to living a life of freedom in this powerful five-part study for young adults. The ideas provided in this study have the potential to alter everything, including your worldview. Freedom to Love is suitable for young adult ministries on college campuses and in parishes.

Freedom to Love addresses critical questions, including:

• What is the Theology of the Body and how can it change my life?
• What does it mean to live a life of freedom?
• What does love look like and how do I live it?
• How can I tell the difference between love and lust?
• What is the problem with pornography?
• Doesn't contraception make me free?
• Does God have a plan for my future?
