BC0031 - Catholic Marriage Prep / The Enneagram Bellator Colloquium

Today we talk to one of our Bellator contributors, Kristi Bentley, about marriage preparation.  What IS marriage preparation in the Church?  What kind of resources are there to help couples prepare for marriage?  When should people start preparing for marriage?  What if we didn’t get good marriage preparation when we were engaged?  Why does it even matter?  We talk about all these questions and SO much more.  Kristi is a gem and a treasure trove of insight on this topic.
