Freedom to Love, Study Set

What is freedom? The world tells us that freedom is the ability to do what you want, whenever you want, with whomever you want. But has this led to strong relationships, strong families, or strong communities? In reality, since the days of the “sexual revolution,” the exact opposite has played out. Every day we see rampant sexual chaos, exploitation, broken families, and a lot of pain—all as a result of an abuse and misunderstanding of freedom.

Recognizing the world’s confusion, St. John Paul II offered the Theology of the Body (TOB) lectures—which together present a profound message of love and human sexuality. He turned the false notion of freedom on its head, declaring that true freedom is selfless rather than selfish. He taught that freedom exists for the sake of love, and that authentic freedom always asks “What is the good of the other person?” not “What’s in it for me?”

In this powerful five-part study for young adults, popular author and presenter Christopher West lays out a convincing and refreshing road map to living a life of freedom. The concepts presented in this study can change everything, including your worldview. Freedom to Love is ideal for college campus and parish young adult ministries.

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?

The visually-stunning, full color Student Workbook will guide participants through their study of Freedom to Love with thought-provoking questions, inspiring quotes, and helpful commentary. This workbook is just one part of the program and is designed to work alongside the videos, which can be watched via DVD or streaming.
