Does Christian Marriage Really Have Two Ends? | Fr. Gregory Pine and Fr. Patrick Briscoe
Marriage isn’t just about companionship, and it isn’t just about having children. In the Catholic vision, these two realities belong together. The mutual love of husband and wife is ordered toward the procreation and education of children, and that same openness to life deepens their union. Far from being unromantic, this understanding reveals marriage as a sacrament of self-gift—one that builds families, strengthens communities, and leads spouses to holiness.

CONVERSATION FOR CONVERSION
Godsplaining is a Catholic podcast hosted by four Dominican friars of the Province of St. Joseph. In each episode, we help you to deepen your faith, pray with confidence, and tackle today’s difficult issues. Taking ideas from the Church’s Scriptures and tradition, we bring them to bear on life’s most urgent questions. So tune in, as we converse to convert.
The friars of Godsplaining are Catholic priests in the Order of Preachers, better known as the Dominicans, a religious order founded in 1216 by St. Dominic to preach the truth of the Gospel for the salvation of souls.
For over 800 years, the Dominican friars have sought to form hearts and minds through their preaching and their witness to Christ. On Godsplaining, the friars share the fruits of their prayer and study as contemplative preachers in a contemporary age.
