In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews John Aquaviva on his book Improving your Kids’ Body Image through Catholic Teaching (February 23, 2024)

Improving your Kids’ Body Image through Catholic Teaching: How Theology of the Body and Other Church Teachings Can Transform your Life is the unique approach to the body image crisis that impacts many children. From a young age, our kids are under immense pressure from a variety of sources that can determine the value of their bodies. But God has something to say about this as well. Saint John Paul II’s wonderful teaching known as Theology of the Body is the book’s guiding force. Along with Scripture and the Church’s Sacraments, this book is an excellent parenting tool to guide your child so they see the worth of their bodies as designed by our Creator. In addition, this book discusses the numerous causes of a poor body image and includes chapters on how to instill fitness and sound nutrition into your family life.

In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dorothy Cusick on her book The Daughter of the King (January 29, 2024).

Counseled by a priest to put her children in an orphanage after being evicted from her home, Dorothy Cusick’s mother, Mary, was in danger of falling into despair. Poetically written, Dorothy’s story of how her mother faced the full weight of her responsibility through her life of faith is an inspiration to the reader. Imbued with the grace only God can provide, Mary’s story gives meaning to our own, recalling a verse from Genesis that “Asher’s produce is rich, and he shall furnish dainties for kings” (49:20).

In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Paul Murano on his book The Devil-ution of Society (January 3, 2024)

In July, 1968, Pope Paul VI promulgated Humanae Vitae in which he observed that “a man who grows accustomed to the use of contraceptive methods may forget the reverence due to a woman, and, disregarding her physical and emotional equilibrium, reduce her to being a mere instrument for the satisfaction of his own desires, no longer considering her as his partner whom he should surround with care and affection.” In this book, Paul Murano demonstrates through a dialogue between two friends, spanning the 60-year period between the close of Vatican II and the present day, how the Pope’s observation proved to be prophetic and how the catalyst of contraceptive technologies has led to the descent of human civilization into an age of insanity.
