115 Virginity for the Sake of Christ, and Marriage
Friday Jun 16, 2023
Friday Jun 16, 2023
In this episode I talk consecrated virginity for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven, and how it relates to marriage. I reflect on some documents of the Vatican Council in this regard, and share some thoughts on how both marriage and consecrated life are two paths established by God Himself for our salvation and sanctification.
