How does the crisis of modern marriage point to a deeper, underlying crisis of faith within Western culture? On Driving Home the Faith, host Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes back retired academic theologian, author, and host of the Gaudium et Spes 22 podcast Dr. Larry Chapp to discuss his recent essays in Catholic World Report and the National Catholic Register.

Chapp and Craycraft explore the pastoral necessity of accompanying Catholics in complex marital situations while warning against a secularized, no-fault divorce culture. Chapp argues that widespread marital breakdown is ultimately a symptom of practical naturalism and nihilism—a loss of faith in the objective efficacy of the sacraments and the physical reality of the Incarnation. They discuss why recovering a truly Catholic, sacramental worldview is essential for restoring clarity to Christian marriage and standing firm against modern cultural skepticism. Stream now to listen!
