Episode notes
Remember Sexual Choices Affect Society
- Do not treat sexual behavior as purely private because bedroom vices create public ripples that harm the common good.
- Hahn argues pornography, infidelity, and sexual lies corrode family trust and injure neighborhood and societal relationships.
Covenant Adds God To A Contract
- Covenant adds God as a third name to a contract, transforming exchange into interpersonal communion.
- Hahn links invoking God's name and swearing an oath to the sacramental depth that makes marriage indissoluble.
Seek The Sacramental Oath Not Just A Vow
- Live sacramental marriage: seek the grace (oath/sacrament) not just legal vows to sustain lifelong fidelity.
- Hahn explains sacramentum (oath) supplies divine help when spouses acknowledge they need God's grace to keep promises.
