What People Are Saying

This is a work that will be a treasure for not only the couples preparing for marriage, but for the priests, deacons, religious, and parish lay leaders who minister to them.
Deacon Kevin McCormack
Principal of Xaverian Catholic High School in Brooklyn, New York and radio co-host of “Religion on the Line”
This is a deep, rich, profoundly valuable tool for couples preparing for marriage as a lifelong vocation and who want theirs to last. But it’s also a great ongoing resource for the already-married. Wonderfully organized and written, and highly recommended.
Most. Rev. Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap.
Archbishop of Philadelphia
Grounded in solid Catholic theology, attractively presented, and helpfully seasoned with real-life examples from married life, One Body provides readers with a healthy and holy appreciation of the gifts of a generous and happily married couple. The seven lessons can serve as a great resource for parish study groups.
Most Reverend Joseph E. Kurtz, D.D.
Archbishop of Louisville
With great vigor, Pope Francis has reminded us of the need to accompany spouses and those considering marriage along their journeys. . . . There is much to be gained by the small groups or couples who utilize this sound and practical work!
Curtis Martin
Founder and President, Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS)
What I love about this book is its blend of intelligence and heart. It marshals the best that the Church has to offer in the way of Scripture and theology, while integrating this seamlessly with the emotional and psychological features of marriage.
