Catechism of the Catholic Church
The current Catechism of the Catholic Church is a Saint and Body of Christ inspired instrument that distills the best of Catholic Christian thought and teaching on the truth of living a Christian life in the Father Kingdom. The method of delivery is technology easily accessed by all, a book. The online version is made available through the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. The embed below is opened to Article 7: The Sacrament of Matrimony.
Venerable Servant of God Fulton J. Sheen
Archbishop Sheen, best known for his popularly televised and syndicated television program, Life is Worth Living, is held today as one of Catholicism’s most widely recognized figures of the twentieth century.
The cause for his canonization was officially opened in 2002. In June 2012, Pope Benedict XVI officially recognized a decree from the Congregation for the Causes of Saints stating that he lived a life of "heroic virtues" – a major step towards beatification – and he is now referred to as "Venerable."

133: The Miracle of Fulton Sheen—Bonnie Engstrom
|
Okay, this is a personal biggie. To get to talk to the mother of the baby boy, James Fulton Engstrom, who was stillborn on September 16, 2010, after a healthy pregnancy. The baby stayed dead for 61 minutes.

125: Is Marriage Done For?—Dr. Scott Hahn
|
|
Dr. Scott Hahn thinks the battle has just begun for a resurgent reverence for marriage as its been defined for 3000+ years, and was raised to the dignity of a Sacrament by Jesus Christ.
Marriage as Sacrament is badly misunderstood today, which is part of the reason why so many people leave their spouses when the going gets tough. Hahn, professor of theology at Franciscan University of Steubenville, OH, and author of over 40 books, knows firsthand how tough the going can get. This very personal interview with one of the best known and respected Catholic thinkers and influencers in American Church history. |
The family and the Sacrament of Marriage in our current culture is being de-valued and some would say clearly under attack.
A trend in many Christian families are wedding ceremonies outside the church. These ceremonies are sometimes performed by individuals who complete an ordination ceremony on the Internet and then are deemed acceptable by the state to perform a legal marriage ceremony in a particular state. If you consider yourself a practicing Catholic please read the following questions and answers to form your understanding, and what the Catholic Church teaches about the Sacrament of Marriage.
