Sexuality and Our Faith

Sexuality and Our Faith are religious companion manuals to the Our Whole Lives program (one manual for each OWL Level) that integrate ritual, prayer, liturgy and scripture into each lesson plan.

Using Sexuality and Our Faith resources as a part of your Our Whole Lives program can be an important and transformational part of offering sexuality education in your faith community.  Incorporating these resources encourages participants to apply their religious values to issues related to sexuality. Each Sexuality and Our Faith manual contains both United Church of Christ and Unitarian Universalist Association supplemental material, rich with liturgy, meaningful prayers, and music.
