Word Made Flesh
One of the most influential and fastest-growing movements
in the Church today is centered on St. John Paul II’s Theology
of the Body (TOB), of whose teachings Christopher West is the
preeminent translator for a popular audience. In Word Made
Flesh (Cycle A), West offers reflections on an entire cycle of
Sunday Mass readings through the lens of TOB, providing a
fresh way to process and act on the Good News by orienting
our desires for union with God with our understanding of
ourselves and our relationships with others.
St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body is most often framed as
an extended catechesis on human sexuality and married love.
West takes us on a tour of the Sunday readings throughout the
liturgical year and opens their hidden meaning, allowing God’s
word to take flesh in our own lives.
In a clearly written introduction, Christopher West provides
a primer on TOB—an overview of its main teachings and an
explanation of how these teachings brilliantly illuminate the
whole story of salvation from Genesis to Revelation.
In Word Made Flesh, West offers distinctive reflections on all fiftytwo
Sunday readings from the first Sunday of Advent through
Christ the King Sunday. The reflections naturally and deeply
connect with the human experience of living with body and soul
in the world while also contemplating the nature of the glorified
body in the eternal kingdom to come.
The material in Word Made Flesh can be used as a weekly
devotional, as preparation for Sunday Mass, or to aid priests or
deacons in preparing their homilies. Word Made Flesh (Cycle B)
will be released for Advent 2020.
