Many people find that reciting the Rosary with a set of thematic meditations brings them to a deeper prayer experience. With that in mind, this book offers Rosary meditations based on Pope St. John Paul II's seminal teaching on the human person: Theology of the Body. This book can also be read independently as a means of better understanding these teachings and their meaning for modern man and woman. Cincinnati Archbishop Dennis Schnurr, in granting the im primatur to this book, has said: 'The reflections are theologically rich and biblically sound, offering fresh insights to each mystery of the Rosary in the light of Theology of the Body.'

You are what you love. But you might not love what you think. In this book, award-winning author James K. A. Smith shows that who and what we worship fundamentally shape our hearts. And while we desire to shape culture, we are not often aware of how culture shapes us. We might not realize the ways our hearts are being taught to love rival gods instead of the One for whom we were made. Smith helps readers recognize the formative power of culture and the transformative possibilities of Christian practices. He explains that worship is the "imagination station" that incubates our loves and longings so that our cultural endeavors are indexed toward God and his kingdom. This is why the church and worshiping in a local community of believers should be the hub and heart of Christian formation and discipleship. Following the publication of his influential work Desiring the Kingdom, Smith received numerous requests from pastors and leaders for a more accessible version of that book's content. No mere abridgment, this new book draws on years of Smith's popular presentations on the ideas in Desiring the Kingdom to offer a fresh, bottom-up rearticulation. The author creatively uses film, literature, and music illustrations to engage readers and includes new material on marriage, family, youth ministry, and faith and work. He also suggests individual and communal practices for shaping the Christian life.
