    Holy Matrimony: A Vocation of Service

    Holy Matrimony: A Vocation of Service

    Have you ever thought of marriage as a sacrament of communion? The heart of marriage is not emotional support within a domestic relationship, but rather the mutual giving of two entire lives. Michael Gormley and Dave VanVickle compare and contrast how society and the Church view marriage and remind those partaking in and preparing for the sacrament that, when you serve your spouse and your children, you are truly serving Jesus Himself.
    Snippet from the Show
    Marriage is truly a crucible in the service of the people that you love.

    How the Anointing of the Sick Actually Works

    How the Anointing of the Sick Actually Works

    What is Anointing of the Sick? This sacrament can receive a lot of misunderstanding and confusion. Who can receive it? Is it for spiritual or physical ailment? What does it actually do? Michael Gormley and Dave VanVickle respond to these questions and offer their personal experiences of witnessing the sacrament.


    Snippet from the Show
    The Anointing of the Sick completes our conformity to the death and resurrection of Christ just as Baptism began it.
