Questions of Faith: The Church and Marriage breakdown

(Vatican Radio) When married couples experience difficulties or a crisis in their relationship, can the Church be of any help? If so, how? Is divorce the only answer? Is the annulment of a marriage just a form of Catholic divorce? If not, how are annulment and divorce different? Can a divorced person receive the sacraments? In short, is a divorced person or a divorced and civilly remarried person outside the Church?

These are just some of the questions sent in by listeners that our very own official from the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Msgr. John Kennedy , answers in this week’s episode of Questions of Faith, as he helps us to navigate the modern world and rediscover what we believe and why we believe. Listen:
