Description
How We Love: A Formation for the Celibate Life
A well-researched and thorough program for celibacy formation, this volume provides a comprehensive approach to chaste celibacy for men and women in religious and seminary settings.
Br. John Mark Falkenhain explores the theological and psycho-sexual dimensions of celibacy, identifying four major content areas: motives for chaste celibacy, theological aspects of celibate chastity, sexual identity, and skills for celibate living. The book offers formation goals and benchmarks for discernment, as well as implications and suggestions for ongoing formation.
