Understanding Your Sacred Body

Written for Latter-day Saint parents who feel unsure how to talk to their children about sexuality, this guide reframes the topic as sacred rather than shameful. Blending child-development expertise with gospel teaching, Dr. Shoba Vinson walks families through where babies come from, how bodies work, why the body is a temple, how to recognize and respond to abuse, and why chastity matters eternally. Discussion questions and read-aloud passages make it a practical, faith-centered tool for teaching children of many ages, line upon line.

• Gives nervous parents the words to teach sexuality as sacred, not shameful
• Written by a PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy who grounds every lesson in scripture
• Built-in discussion questions make it usable as a read-together teaching tool
• Includes clear, gospel-centered body-safety and abuse-prevention guidance

Perfect for an LDS parent who wants to teach a young child about bodies, reproduction, and chastity in a faith-based way but doesn't know how to start.
