Our 15th Wedding Anniversary (& Homily #138 on Proclaiming God's Kingdom Through Family)


Marriage is a calling.  Not everyone is called to marriage.  

Marriage is a gift.  It is not a right to demand, and it not something that human beings create according to their own popular fads of the day.

Marriage was instituted by God.  There is a plan -- a design or a blueprint -- for marriage.

Marriage is written in the natural law in all civilizations and societies through time.

Marriage is the bedrock on which family is built.(1)


Christ taught definitively on marriage.  







+ A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew.

Jesus said to his Apostles:
“As you go, make this proclamation:
‘The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.’
Cure the sick, raise the dead,
cleanse the lepers, drive out demons.
Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give.
