Practicing gratitude 

Break 1

Greg Schutte's Work 

Sacramental vs. Matrimonial marriage 

Break 2

The aftermath of infidelity 

Doug is joined by marriage therapist Greg Schutte, MSW, LISW-S, for a thoughtful conversation on how to bring gratitude into marriage and into all of our relationships. Together they explore practical ways to cultivate thankfulness, strengthen emotional connection, and build a home grounded in appreciation and grace.

 

Listener Questions and Comments:

(12:47) Mary: Shares that her son and daughter-in-law have told her she cannot bring God into their home. She asks how to move forward when her daughter-in-law doesn’t want to speak with her and they are unable to see their grandchild, despite the couple being married 10 years.

 

(24:20) Ron: Asks how to distinguish between a matrimonial marriage and a sacramental marriage. He’s been married 41 years and references beginning with an engagement encounter.

 

(35:57) Jane: Wants advice on how to approach her daughter’s non-practicing Catholic fiancé about completing a marriage preparation program, including how to share it with him online and what to say to encourage them.
