Questions answered this episode: Dear Christopher and Wendy, thank you for all you do. For context, my husband and I are expecting a baby again for the third time in less than three years, despite our best efforts to practice NFP. I am exhausted and facing potentially serious health concerns. My parents have never understood our stance against contraception, despite being Catholic themselves, and have always tried to persuade us to use it. Things came to a nasty head recently when we announced our latest pregnancy, and we had a major fight. My father says Catholics are not bound by the teachings of Humanae Vitae and are thus free to practice contraception because it is not, quote, ex cathedra doctrine. How do I respond to this? My dad said some very hurtful things about my husband and me. I don't know what to do. I held my ground during the argument, but now I'm starting to doubt myself. Please help. I'm a 20-year-old college student who truly started choosing Christ in my first year of college. In high school, I was in sinful relationships, but when attending a Catholic college, I wanted to stop that. Everything changed when I met a girl who inspired me to pursue sainthood, and I knew I needed to grow in virtue to date her. After seven months of waiting and growing, we began a Christ-centered relationship. But it ended after a month and a half when she chose to discern religious life. Two years later, I still struggle to move on. I've mistakenly entered other relationships hoping to forget her but constantly find myself thinking of her and comparing potential partners and even friends to her. Deep down, I don't want to let her go and feel drawn to reach out, remembering the Christ-filled joy our relationship brought to both of us. My question is, should I let go or should I pursue this relationship? I've been married for 21 years. On our honeymoon, my husband suffered an injury that made sexual intercourse extremely difficult and eventually impossible for him. We have seen doctors for treatments that were unsuccessful and very embarrassing for my husband. In time, we realized it was not going to get better, and it hasn't. By God's grace, we were able to have one child, but marital relations between us have not been possible for over 17 years. My heart aches and longs for this affection from my husband, but I long ago accepted the fact that our marriage is celibate and always will be. In the early days, we fought about this all the time, mostly because he avoided physical contact with me so as not to arouse himself, and I felt very rejected. He's never really liked to talk about this as he finds it very difficult to share his emotions. I used to pressure him to talk, but I've learned that that just isn't his way. I've also learned to see the many other ways that my husband loves me through his acts of service and dedication to our family. He is a wonderful husband, and we love each other deeply. Our strongest connection is our Catholic faith. I experienced a very deep conversion back to my Catholic faith a few years after our marriage, and this has helped me to mature and grow a deep intimacy with God. Even though I have that intimacy with God, I still at times feel so very alone with this cross and have spent most of my marriage feeling as though my husband doesn't desire me, as if he doesn't miss the intimacy because he won't share his pain with me. I have recently begun reading a book, The Cantata of Love, a commentary on the Song of Songs. The imagery in the poem is so beautiful, and it has reawakened in me again the feelings of how much I miss my husband. This part of me I mostly shut down because it's too painful to keep revisiting those unmet desires. It feels a bit like, why torture yourself by reading this? At the same time, I realized that the poem is also an allegory of the love between the bridegroom and the bride, Jesus and my soul. I wonder if you have any experience with people in similar situations and what has helped them. Ask Christopher West is a weekly podcast in which Theology of the Body Institute President Christopher West and his beloved wife Wendy share their humor and wisdom, answering questions about marriage, relationships, life, and the Catholic faith, all in light of John Paul II's beautiful teachings on the Theology of the Body.

[1:07:55] Bloodlines Tainted by Royalty and OathsMarjorie ties a listener's congenital defects to royal bloodlines or Freemasonry, marked by bloodshed and oaths.She describes Freemasons' horrific oaths (e.g., “let my eyes be plucked out”), giving demons permission to afflict.Healing involves confessing iniquities and pleading that Jesus' blood cleanses DNA.Reagan and Marjorie affirm how covenant prayer's power, especially with a spouse, amplifies authority against curses. [1:17:44] Healing Kids and Building CommunityMarjorie advises asking Jesus to reveal kids' lies (e.g., fear from in utero trauma), clearing them as their representative.She shares a hyperactive child's healing from incubator trauma, proving the method's efficacy when specific.Speaking God's Word aloud rewires DNA, a tool seen in seniors reciting hymns, offering hope for deep restoration.[1:24:59] Prayer and a Call to PersevereMarjorie prays for revelation to free listeners from lies, urging them to bring curses to God's throne.Co-laboring with Christ promises healing, a partnership Marjorie urges with boldness and faith in His justice.The episode reinforces the idea of perseverance, tying back to Reagan's crash survival as a testament to God's protection.About MajorieMarjorie Cole is a dedicated servant of God, committed to guiding others through the complexities of faith and spiritual growth.

Family caregiving is a profound and complex journey, particularly when faced with dementia or terminal illnesses. In this podcast episode, a replay of a Books & Chit Chat discussion, we delve into the experiences of Malia Kline, co-author of "Sisterly Shove." She shares her heartfelt story of caring for her aging parents and the intricate dynamics encountered with her physician sister and co-author Diane Stinson. Malia's caregiving journey begins with her family grappling with the twin burdens of her father's dementia and her mother's pancreatic cancer. Malia and Diane had differing views on their care, which involved moving each parent cross-country from one sister's care to the other's. Diane, a pathologist, believed different medical decisions could extend their lives. Malia wished them relief from suffering even if it resulted in death. However, these differing perspectives did not create a chasm between them; instead, they brought the sisters closer in their shared mission. Writing a book with alternating chapters from each perspective helped in this process. For Malia, writing "Sisterly Shove" with Diane was not just a story-telling endeavor but a therapeutic journey. The collaborative process allowed them to alternate writing and editing chapters, facilitating understanding and maintaining their relationship. Their book provides an intimate perspective on caregiving challenges, sibling dynamics, and their fight against the medical establishment. Through excerpts read during the podcast, we gain insights into how the sisters' different approaches reflected their childhood personalities and shaped their caregiving strategies. Malia emphasizes the importance of journaling and writing as tools for preserving memories and coping with the complex emotions of caregiving. In this episode, you will: Understand the impact of dementia on the entire family dynamic, not just the individual.Learn how to navigate complex sibling dynamics in elder care to foster a more cohesive and collaborative caregiving approach.Discover effective coping strategies when caring for a loved one with dementia, creating a more harmonious caregiving environment.See how writing is a powerful tool for processing and managing the emotional complexities of caregiving.

With the election behind us, are we on a path to unity or stuck in the “Great Divide”? A Harris Poll found 77% of adults stressed about the nation's future. Tonight, we explore this divide—from secession talks to family conflicts—and how we can work to bridge it. Now that we have the Presidential election behind us… Do you think we are on a path to unity OR are we stuck in the “Great Divide”? The Harris Poll conducted a survey for the American Psychological Association right before the election. Of the adults they questioned, 77% said that the future of our nation was a significant source of stress in their lives. That's a lot of stress! Tonight, a look at the “great divide” that we ALL need to work on closing – from those who want their states to secede to those who struggle with family conflict.

Send us a textThere seems to be so much advice that tells us to "talk it out," but what we seem to overlook is that talking it out comes with very real risks. There's a reason so many of us try so hard to avoid conflict and keep the peace- and it's not because of a lack of communication skills or self-confidence. While communication is great and necessary for healthy relationships, not all the relationships in your life are healthy ones - and that's not always within your control. Not everyone is willing or able to do repair and connection with you. The truth is there are times when talking it out just doesn't work. Not all connections are meant to be mended, and setting realistic boundaries can be key. This episode is packed with strategies to maintain your peace of mind and engage in more effective conversations, all while ensuring your response is one you won't regret, or that won't waste your precious energy. Before you try to talk it out and seek repair with a difficult person, you need to ask yourself the questions I'm sharing with you here. Lastly, I'll encourage you to reclaim your power through self-accountability, focusing on personal growth rather than trying to change the immovable. Tune in to gain insights that will empower you to handle life's relationship hurdles with confidence and clarity.Have a topic or question you'd love to hear about?Message me and let me know.email april@lovelossproject.comInstagram @with.love.aprilhttps://www.instagram.com/with.love.april/Sign up to get tips & tools sent to your inbox.https://aprilboyd.ca/ Please note: This show is not a replacement for therapy, assessment, treatment or diagnosis.

Our hosts Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines sit down with Pam Starsia, who swapped her corporate lawyer gig for the world of estate planning, and now runs a firm alongside her husband. Once a pro in high-stakes mergers and acquisitions, Pam's now all about creating personalized, relationship-focused estate plans. Listen in as she takes us through the sometimes-tricky and always-emotional landscape of family legacy planning. “If you have the resources to pay for help, do so. You deserve it.” Pam unpacks the Personal Family Lawyer model she follows, which emphasizes the human side of legal advice to meet a family's evolving needs. Her insights help us balance the emotional and practical sides of family legacy planning, offering a new take on the whole process beyond just writing a will. When dealing with clients, Pam's all-in on personal touch. Our hosts and Pam chat about the emotional twists that can pop up, like sibling dynamics and particularly sentimental items. She dishes out practical tips for navigating these situations, reducing conflicts, and making sure everyone in the family gets a say. They also explore some unique aspects of estate planning, like the question of your furry friends, and Pam gives us the lowdown on setting up options like pet trusts to ensure they're cared for in the future.
