It's the age old question couples ask . . . "How far is too far before marriage?" But I think that's really the wrong question to be asking. As human beings, our hearts are far too complex to be simply reduced to a hard and fast rule. Don't get me wrong, rules are important! But as the rich young man in the Gospel shows us, it's possible to follow all the rules without following Jesus. . . ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community!

What is chastity? And what is it not? In his book Love and Responsibility, John Paul II says that the very word "chastity" needs to be rehabilitated.

What is wrong with two consenting adults having sex? Maybe nothing. . . but maybe all kinds of things. In our world, sexual morality comes down to this one thing: the consent of both parties.

In this exclusive segment, Matt Fradd and I discuss the themes of Saint John Paul II's Love and Responsibility and explore how they expose the fundamental problem with pornography. Matt and I have been friends for many years and I recently had the privilege of being on his show, Pints with Aquinas. We had an all out conversation about God, struggles with sexuality, human brokenness, and Theology of the Body. You can check that out over on his channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N12crMjh-I ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community!

Is there sex in heaven? Inquiring minds want to know. . . Well, it depends on what we mean by the word. Christ is pretty clear, He says that in the resurrection men and women will no longer be given in marriage. That is to say, the two are no longer going to become one flesh in the sense of genital union. However. . . ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community!

One of the biggest objections I get to the work that I do is this: "How do you reconcile all that emphasis and talk about the body with what the Bible says about living by the spirit and not by the flesh?" ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community!

Probably the most controversial line, by modern standards, in the whole Bible is this: "Wives, submit to your husbands." So what does that really mean? It can tend to make the hair on the back of a woman's neck stand up. But of course, we must apply the first rule of biblical exegesis. . . Read it in context. ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community! Your monthly gift helps us continue to put out the message of Theology of the Body to the world.

There's a commonly held belief that the Catholic Church is obsessed with "the pelvic issues." Is the Catholic Church really obsessed with sex and sexual sin? Well, this question usually relates to the Church's keen interest in upholding sexual morality. And the Church, to be sure, feels a very keen interest in helping the world to understand the true meaning, dignity, and beauty of our sexuality, not only because no one else is talking about it, but because the world's confusion about sexuality is leading to our destruction. . . ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community!

Why is there such a widespread notion that the Church is down on sex? Even the most loyal Catholic has to admit that this notion about the Church being down on sex (even though it's incorrect) is not just the fancy of illusion. There's a reason for this. It comes from somewhere. . . ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community! Your monthly gift helps us continue to put out the message of Theology of the Body to the world.

If you were raised in a Christian home, you've been hearing since you were little that we are made in the image and likeness of God. But nobody told me growing up that that had anything to do with sexuality. But there it is right in the Bible! God said, "Let Us make man in Our Image. Male and female He created them and he blessed them saying, be fruitful and multiply." ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community!

I've got some good news for you. . . good news about Catholic teaching on sex and marriage. No, it is not the oppressive list of prohibitions we tend to think it is! It is a call to real love, to real life, to real joy, and to real fulfillment. We're gonna unpack it. ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community!

The opposite of love is not so much hatred. The opposite of love is using others. The human person is the kind of being possessing such a dignity that when he is used as a means to an end, the person feels that as a violation of his own dignity. Furthermore, the dignity of the person is such that the only proper response is to love the person for his or her own sake. ––––––––––––––––––––– Click the link to join our Patron Community!
