"It takes both courage and a very clear head for a Catholic theologian to take on any issue regarding sexuality today. Ron Rolheiser succeeds here in a very positive, honest, and helpful way! His approach is brilliantly not sin-centered but value-centered. Bravo!" --Richard Rohr, O.F.M.
Celibacy isn't for everyone, but Chastity is! With infinite wisdom and compassion, Ron Rolheiser gives us a fresh understanding of chastity, not based on repressions, prudishness, or even just sex, but on reverence, patience, and respect for ourselves and others in every area of life, that leads to true love, joy, community, and union with God These days, it's hard to say the word "chastity" without a cringe. But in this book, beloved teacher Fr. Ronald Rolheiser boldly champions the notion of chastity in its fullest meaning: respect, patience, reverence, and a God-given gift of propriety in every area of life--not just in the area of sex. In twenty-four power packed chapters, Fr. Ron compassionately and eloquently elaborates on how we can reclaim the lost virtue of chastity. He spells out the reasons for the death of chastity in our culture, the negative consequences of that has had on our souls and in our lives, the need for a healthy chastity in all areas of our lives, what constitutes that healthy chastity, and its positive consequences--so that we can say the word chastity without a cringe. This is a book not just for those believers seeking to live a holier life, but for all those who seek to live the fullest, most authentic life possible. Chastity and the Soul is the guide we all need to come to the realization that in God's eyes, each one of us is holy ground.Author Biography
