Women, Sex, and the Church
Edited by Erika Bachiochi
In the modern world, the Catholic Church is often labeled misogynistic and out of touch with society. Issues like pre-marital sex, abortion, and the priesthood cause division within the Church. The Church’s position on these topics is called sexist and archaic. But in reality, the Church’s teachings on sex, marriage, contraception, and the priesthood are entirely consistent with feminist ideology and have the best interest of women and children at their core.
In Women, Sex, and the Church, various experts have pooled their theological and catechetical wisdom to present thought-provoking essays on the Catholic Church’s most controversial teachings. The book is a collection of insights based on science, social research, and empirical data supporting the Church’s teachings and explicating those teachings in a logical and convincing way.
If you are looking to better understand Church teachings, looking for a source to help you explain them to others, or trying to reconcile your faith and love for the Catholic Church with the more difficult to understand doctrines, this book is an amazing and intelligent addition to your library.
