Book Description
This book addresses a single question in ethics: Which sexual acts are moral between a husband and wife? The question is answered by considering the teachings of Saints Jerome, Augustine, Aquinas, Liguori, and Pope Saint John Paul II, as well as the teachings of Sacred Scripture and the Roman Catholic Magisterium. The opinions of present-day priests and theologians are reviewed, and arguments on both sides are examined and explained. This book should not be controversial. It merely presents the view of marital sexual ethics traditionally held in the Catholic Church. The conclusions of the book are well-supported by magisterial teachings, biblical teachings, and the theology of Saints and Doctors of the Church. Many orthodox theologians, past and present, have taught this same understanding. And in light of the most recent teachings of the Magisterium, no other conclusion is possible. The only moral sexual act is natural marital relations open to life, for that act alone is inherently marital, unitive, and procreative.

Book Description
"The Catholic Church on Marital Intercourse traces the development of the church's theology of marital sexuality from New Testament times to the present day, addressing the way in which the Catholic Church has moved away from an attitude of conditional acceptance of marital intercourse on the basis of its utility to the recognition that the dynamics of sexual union are both good and holy."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
Pope Francis, in his recent exhortation Amoris Laetitia (“Joy of Love”), praises marriage as a unique “friendship marked by passion” and “a free, faithful, and exclusive love.” We live in a culture that doesn’t cherish the permanence of marriage, according to Karee and Manuel Santos. Even Catholics aren’t immune from the epidemic of divorce. But how can you make the ideals of being forever, faithful, fruitful, and free a reality? How can you maintain a healthy Catholic marriage when society is pushing against it? In The Four Keys to Everlasting Love, the Santoses draw on real-life stories, scriptural principles, and the timeless wisdom of St. John Paul II to help you celebrate the sacrament of Marriage without downplaying the difficulties of married life. In doing so, they will inspire you to stay in love with each other, Christ, and the wisdom of the Church. The Santoses tell their own story as well: how they learned not to cling to personality, culture, or religious differences; how they learned to put family first; how they overcame health crises that exacted a physical, emotional, and spiritual toll; and how they navigated stressful holiday get-togethers with extended family. They let God transform them and make their marriage stronger. Each chapter provides discussion questions, action prompts, quotes from the Catechism of the Catholic Church and various popes, and additional online and print resources to stimulate the couple’s conversation, mutual understanding, and positive change. Free worksheets and other supplemental resources are available on the authors’ website, canwecana.blogspot.com.

Book Description
"And they lived happily ever after." Only in fairy tales, you say. But there is life after the honeymoon-messy, challenging, happily-married life. That's the great promise of Catholic marriage, and if you're married or considering marriage the joy is there for you, too. Many Catholics today share the culture's unease-fear of divorce, the prevalence of cohabitation, the wounds of past relationships all conspire to make til-death-do-us-part seem like a risky proposition. But the authors of Catholic and Married all agree, marriage is the adventure of a lifetime. In these sometimes funny, tell-it-like-it-is chapters, this diverse group of men and women offer you their insights and advice on: Children - the gift that keeps on giving Marrying young - objections and object lessons Contraception - an honest discussion on a touchy subject Parenting skills - it's not rocket science (it just feels like it sometimes) And much more! These stories will encourage you to lean into love. Hold nothing back. And experience the Catholic marriage God intended for you.

Book Description
Catholic Marriage: A Pastoral and Liturgical Commentary is a collection of essays by scholars and practitioners on the rites, spirituality, history, theology, and pastoral practice surrounding the Sacrament of Matrimony in the Roman Catholic Church. Those who minister to engaged couples and teach the sacrament will appreciate the accessible approach to the meaning of Christian marriage and how it has been expressed in the rites of the Church and cultural customs. James and Evelyn Whitehead, longtime partners in marriage and in the exploration of Christian spirituality, open the book with their essay “Promises to Keep: A Spirituality of Christian Marriage.” The collection then focuses on the marriage rites themselves from a variety of perspectives. Kimberly Hope Belcher, assistant professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame, wife and mother, offers “A Theology of Marriage.” Anne McGowan, assistant professor at Catholic Theological Union (CTU), also married with children, presents “Committed in Christ: A Historical Overview of Christian Marriage Rites.” Gilbert Ostdiek, OFM, professor of liturgy at CTU whose long career includes work on the translation of the rites of the Catholic Church, discusses the “Evolution and Translation of the 2016 Marriage Rite.” CTU professors Edward Foley and Richard Fragomeni focus on the adaptations that other bishops' conferences in the Western world have made in “The Marriage Rites: an International Perspective." Turning toward the pastoral aspects of the celebration of marriage, Paul Covino, husband, father, grandfather, deacon, campus minister, and expert in advising soon-to-be married couples, shares his wisdom in “Preparing the Wedding, Preparing for Marriage.” Diana Macalintal, who with her husband is cofounder of TeamRCIA, explores a crucial and often overlooked aspect of any sacramental celebration in “Mystagogy of Marriage.” Timone Davis, assistant professor at Loyola University Chicago’s Institute of Pastoral Studies, teams with Ed Foley to reflect on “Preaching at Weddings.” Conductor, composer, teacher, pastoral musician, wife, and mother Jennifer Kerr Budziak joins Richard Fragomeni in considering “Music in the Celebration of Marriage: Reflections on Best Practices." Finally, Patrick R. Lagges, who served for many years in the canonical offices of the Archdiocese of Chicago, presents “Canonical Reflections on the Order of Celebrating Matrimony.”

Author: Donald P. Asci Publisher: Ignatius Press ISBN: 0898708443 Category : Religion Languages : en Pages : 351
Book Description
In contrast to the popular view of human sexuality, the Catholic Church promotes an understanding that not only includes unique considerations on the ethical level but also appreciates the most profound aspects of sexuality. In this insightful study, Donald Asci shows how the Catholic concept of sexuality and sexual intercourse articulates the ethical norms by which these profound realities are preserved. The teachings of the Church open the path to a fulfillment that only the deepest aspects of sexuality can supply. Beyond the moral norms of the Church's sexual ethics lies a theology of sexuality that recalls what is at stake in the realm of sexual activity. Thus, the Church not only affirms marriage as the only morally acceptable context for sexual intercourse, but also develops a specific concept of the conjugal act for husband and wife. Asci's study is a great help in showing the beauty of the Church's teaching on the truly personal character of the conjugal act as love-giving, life-giving, grace-giving and in providing the wider theological understanding of the human person, male and female, that serves as the context for this teaching. --William E.
