St. John the Baptist on Marriage | The Catholic Truth the World Rejects

About this sermon

On this Feast of Saint John the Baptist, we reflect on the fearless prophet who prepared the way for Christ and ultimately gave his life defending the sanctity of marriage. St. John the Baptist preached repentance because the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. His unwavering courage in confronting King Herod's unlawful union remains a powerful example for Catholics today as marriage faces unprecedented attacks throughout the world. In this reflection we examine: • Why St. John the Baptist is the great defender of Christian marriage • The Church's timeless teaching that marriage is between one man and one woman • Why marriage is for life • The importance of openness to children • The graces of the Sacrament of Matrimony • The dangers of selfishness within marriage • Why married couples should pray together daily • How suffering, sacrifice, and fidelity lead to holiness May St. John the Baptist intercede for all husbands, wives, families, priests, and bishops that they may courageously defend the truth entrusted to the Church.
