Are You Married Outside the Church? Here's Why It's Time to Come Home (Trending with Timmerie)
Description
A Relevant Radio host shared a heartfelt reflection for Catholics married outside the Church: bring your marriage home — into the heart of the faith. She told the story of Sophia, a Catholic mother who realized that despite being civilly married, her family was missing something vital — sacramental grace. With great joy, Sophia had her marriage convalidated in Rome, seeking not ceremony, but God’s grace.
The host emphasized that grace transforms marriage just as Christ turned water into wine at Cana. A Catholic marriage is not merely a contract but a supernatural covenant that endures “before the eyes of God.” Even in struggle or separation, that sacred bond remains.
Her invitation was clear: talk to your priest, pray, and trust God’s mercy. Because when marriage is lived in Christ and sealed by His sacrament, it becomes not only stronger — it becomes holy.
