Book Description
“All of us are called to keep striving towards something greater than ourselves and our families, and every family must feel this constant impulse. Let us make this journey as families, let us keep walking together.” Pope Francis, Amoris Laetitia In his groundbreaking work on modern family life, Amoris Laetitia: On Love in the Family, Pope Francis continues to guide and lead the Church, calling us to be a sign of mercy and encouragement for families of all shapes and sizes. The Our Sunday Visitor edition includes exclusive reflection and discussion questions, to help Catholics grow in our understanding of this call, and act upon it. In Amoris Laetitia: On Love in the Family the Holy Father expands on the topics and considerations of the two Synods on the family, and adds his own considerations to help us provide pastoral guidance to support and strengthen today’s families. On Love in the Family guides us through: Scripture – what we can learn from Biblical families and relationships with God and each other Reality – the experiences and challenges we face in today’s world Tradition – essential aspects of Church teaching on marriage and families Love – what it means for all our relationships Ministry – Pope Francis offers pastoral perspectives for helping build strong families Spirituality – the expression of the Gospel message in our relationships

Book Description
Catholic annulment is often viewed as an obstacle to marriage or a formality of cannon law. Few people realize that annulment is more than just a process? annulment leads to healing. The authors draw upon their own experience of Catholic annulment to describe not only the procedure but also the peace it brought into their lives.

Book Description
Marriage will always be a subject of law and of great interest to both legal scholars and sociologists alike because the anthropology that support marriage perceives justice to be a particular reality. With respect to realization of justice in marriage, the Catholic intellectual tradition has identified a legal category that does not exist anywhere else--namely, the consensual incapacity to marry. the Code of Canon Law promulgated in 1983 contains a juridical innovation (canon 1095), but this has not yet been fully digested by American canonists. Furthermore, its application reveals a vast disconnect with historical exegesis. In the last fifty years, American canonical practice in the sphere of marriage law has lost its foundation. The consequences of this include mechanisms of judgment that are rendered incoherent although not inactive--in other words, the application of law in the Catholic Church moves forward without a clear indication of its anthropological basis. Canon law, then, must either be oppressive or absolutely meaningless. There is one canon in particular that in its formula of consensual incapacity to marry is the center of the attempt to define and resolve this question: canon 1095. As of this moment, however, there is no comprehensive treatment of this canon in its current usage and how it developed into positive law after hundreds of years of implicit reference to the grounds for marriage nullity that it now indicates. professors of canon law, members of the Roman Curia and judicial bodies acknowledge that more than a general response to this crisis of law and marriage what might be needed most is a revision of this single canon. they furthermore acknowledge that American canonical practice is perhaps the most influential in the world. A profile of this canon in American jurisprudence is fundamental and demanded presently. There are over one hundred tribunals of varying functions, over two hundred seminaries and more than five thousand seminarians (each year), seventy million Catholics and tens of millions of these Catholics call their vocation marriage. The question of marriage validity is eternal--both with respect to its relation to an historical past as well as individual present day unions. the readership is vast and this book will be included in syllabi in seminaries, Catholic universities and other faculties of sociology, religion and law. It will be a reference guide in tribunals and studied in the course of legislative reform, but it will also be accessible to both scholars and laypersons. the question of consensual incapacity is asked tens of thousands of times each year anew and there is not yet a definitive study that provides answers and guidance for further development of this notion. Another example of the longevity of this work: the manual it will effectively replace was in print for twenty years with five editions (L. Wrenn, 1970, CuA).

In the first book written specifically for the 11 million divorced Catholics in the United States, Lisa Duffy—CatholicMatch.com columnist and creator of the “Journey of Hope” divorce recovery program—combines personal experience, Church teaching, and more than twenty years of ministering to those wounded by divorce to offer a guide that shows how faith can be a catalyst for healthy dating and relationships. Encouraging yet forthright, The Catholic Guide to Dating After Divorce offers sound advice to anyone who has experienced the deflating effects of divorce, but is not ready to give up on love. Affirming the universal need for intimacy, Duffy—a relationship expert, CatholicMatch.com columnist, and creator of the "Journey of Hope" divorce recovery program—shows how faith can be a catalyst for healthy relationships, helping to identify and uproot emotionally harmful habits and boosting authenticity and confidence. Duffy identifies five essential characteristics of spiritually healthy people—being available, affectionate, communicative, faithful, and magnanimous—and shows how cultivating these qualities can bring out the best, most confident, and most attractive version of anyone. Quizzes, journaling questions, and action steps will help the reader grow in these areas. The book concludes with an appendix on resources for those who need help working through an annulment or who are in need of other post-divorce resources.

Book Description
Many people believe that the Roman Catholic Church's teaching on marriage is clear and consistent: marriage is a sacrament, the marriage contract is indissoluble, divorce and remarriage are forbidden. In this book, theologians, historians, and sociologists overhaul the church's teaching and practice on divorce and remarriage, as well as personal testimonies from a number of persons who have gone through the annulment process.
