"Christian matrimony is a lifelong covenant of love
between one man and one woman. … It entails real sacrifices in
order to turn away from illusory notions of sexual freedom and
in order to foster conjugal fidelity."
--Pope Francis (April 25, 2014 address to Catholic bishops of
South Africa) |

the pressure from the culture and also many within Christian
churches who try to claim the Bible supports homosexuality,
Dr. Healy explains how Scripture of course supports the Church
teachings on marriage and sexuality. |
