These Are Our Bodies: Talking Faith & Sexuality at Church & Home is a comprehensive faith and sexuality program based on the universal needs of young people and their parents; it honors and lifts up parents as the primary sexuality educators to their children by involving them as an integral part of the experience.
The Middle School module includes a Leader Guide, Parent Book, and Participant Book. This module of These Are Our Bodies contains 10 sessions (one for parents only, one for parents and students, and eight for students only) that are developmentally appropriate and creatively interactive. Facilitators and small-group leaders will find detailed planning information as well as background and useful ideas to employ the program in their church or community. Parents and young people will be empowered to have meaningful conversations around sexuality and faith.
