Does Marriage Need Defending? with John Clark

Episode #141 of the Gotta Be Saints Podcast

On this episode, I spoke with John Clark about his book, Betrayed without a Kiss: Defending Marriage after Years of Failed Leadership in the Church.

During our conversation, we covered:

- Why he wrote this book
- The many diabolical attacks that are taking place on the sacrament of Matrimony
- The specific factors within the Church that have contributed to the decline in the number of marriages and the rise in annulments
- How the Church can address the indifference among Church leadership toward these alarming trends and marriage in general
- How to make marriage prep better
- How seminaries be better equipped to educate future clergy about the sacrament of Matrimony and its significance
- How it all can change with a greater emphasis on the sacraments
- Practicals
- And much more...
