Fall 2015 - Episode 11: Equally Yoked: Getting Right With God In Your Marriage
  
"Those who celebrate the sacrament say, “I promise to be true to you, in joy and in sadness, in sickness and in health; I will love you and honour you all the days of my life”. At that moment, the couple does not know what will happen, nor what joys and pains await them. They are setting out, like Abraham, on a journey together. And that is what marriage is! Setting out and walking together, hand in hand, putting yourselves in the Lord’s powerful hands. Hand in hand, always and for the rest of your lives. And do not pay attention to this makeshift culture, which can shatter our lives."

Pope Francis
 
What happens when wives are far ahead of their husbands faith wise and vice versa? In this episode we get advice from apologist Trent Horn regarding what wives can do to encourage their husbands in their faith journey as well as Teresa Tomeo’s husband Deacon Dominick Pastore. Deacon Dominick will talk about his journey back to the Church which occurred before Teresa and how he gently brought her back to the faith.

The Kitchen Madonna The Kitchen Madonna:
Patroness of The Catholic View for Women

Mary was not only Jesus' Mother, but also a housewife. Her utensils are earthly and heavenly symbols. The key represents the safety in the house and also the way into heaven. The kettle symbolizes nourishment for body and soul. The broom represents cleanliness in the home and in thoughts and deeds.
