Are there sexual restrictions in marriage with your spouse, per the Church? YES.

Where are the boundaries in the marital chamber?

When I met my husband he had a bunch of "magazines" I threw them away. I told him about trafficking and how people are used as objects and think about his children. He never got another one. Happily married 7 years in the Catholic Church.

This teaching needs to be included in a Catholic Church for couples who want to marry in the Catholic faith. God bless you Father for sharing the truth.

This is an excellent lesson. I have never heard a priest explain this, ever. Thanks be to God for Father Chris and Dr. Bacon. Thank you.

I heard a talk given by Fr. Ripperger and he discusses this in a sacramental way. The 2nd part of marriage is the marital act and when the couple is in the state of grace, they actually obtain grace through then2nd part of the Sacrament of marriage. In my opinion, this is exactly why the Church and her priests ought to give more education to couples. What did Sister Lucia say the final battle between God and Satan be? Marriage and Family. How efficacious would the pure and holy love of spouses be if we purified this area of anything that is preventing us from obtaining grace?!

I'm a married man, and Fr. Alar can lecture to me all day. I wish I had heard this lesson 33 years ago.

We are all called to Chasity. Thank you very much for this ❤

Wonderful clarity! Now I know what I don’t need to talk about in confession which can be just as helpful as what would need to be confessed! So grateful! The truth sets us free! For some of us who are really struggling to put God first yet not being overly constrained and therefore needlessly restrictive, the clarity in this teaching is very refreshing. Without clarity one can really suffer with unnecessary guilt and also not know what to say in confession. Unfortunately many priests are very uncomfortable discussing such matters and so one is left feeling awful no matter what they do or don’t do! It really is a quandry when you are in this situation. Thank you both for this conversation. I am grateful to you both! God is so good! ♥️🕊️

The best marriage advice we ever received came from a priest. We've been married to 38 yrs.

Thank you Christine! This talk really helped me with a situation. Thank you for helping me grow in holiness. You are a direct answer to prayer. God bless you!

[rachelledvina]

Thank you Christine for asking these questions. Thank you Fr. Chris for the truth.

Great information on Church teaching in the Catholic marital chamber! Father Chris, you are brimming with light in this video, I don’t know why some priests are afraid to speak on such subjects with such accuracy and specificity!

[niedobrulec]

This should be told to men specifically, on every possible occasion. Priests don't teach men enough.

[FSR]

This is great. You all are emphasizing the sacred nature and reality of the sexual act. As men and women we still deal with concupiscence in terms of the disorder and corruption of our senses and passions.

[paulmarket]

Finally a clear explanation of what is approved with foreplay and how to use them and how not to use them. God Bless you for your openness and clarity 🙏

[debbiemitchell]

Thank you, Father Chris, you've helped me TREMENDOUSLY!!! We need more priests like you!!

[maltasweet]

Finally, they get to topics no one wants to talk about, but are so important to discuss. Thank you. I know this must have been uncomfortable for the both of you. Praise God

[lindsaydsouza]

Thank you! This is amazing. The Church needs more teachings like this.

When I got married 26 years ago, my then fiancé and myself had to go to marital classes if we wanted to be wed in the Catholic church, which we did. I never remember talking about this sort of thing. Why isn’t there any uniformity within the Catholic church and priests

[brien]

For anyone interested in this priest, Fr Alar, especially on this topic, please check out his talk on the theology of the body on Divine Mercy. There is plenty we aren't taught anymore, not even in my own country, but that channel really helps and can encourage many parishes to educate themselves and their parishioners. With God's help

Thanks for this. I didn't know many of these things. Now I know, what is it about. You are a great man of God, dear Mr. Alar. ❤
