Resources From Class 3/17/26
Catholic Morality

Last night Rafa gave us a great teaching on Catholic Morality -- the heart and logic behind all the "rules"...check it out below!

In the past we've had a whole 3 part series on morality and "the hard sayings of Jesus". The topics involved with Catholic morality are vast and it would be impossible for us to cover them all in depth even in a four week series. I encourage you to take a look at the resource pages from the previous years -- they contain a TON of resources on each topic. Click the Buttons below to get to them.

Sexual Morality including: theology of the body intros, marriage, chastity, co-habitation, pornography, homosexuality (lots of testimonies from Catholics who experience same sex attraction or have dealt with pornography addiction, infidelity, etc.)

Life Matters: Abortion, In-Vitro Fertilization, Euthanasia & Death Penalty

Gender Ideology, Transgenderism, and Gender Dysmorphia: A talk from Fr. Alex and Testimonies from de-transitioners

Below is a sampling of some of the resources contained in the links above, but definitely go to the links for more in-depth or save them as your arsenal for future study!
