Sacramento and natural marriage as we continue our discussion of the definition of marriage next on Catholic answers focus.

Hello and welcome again to Catholic Answers Focus.

I'm Cy Kellett, your host.

And this is the second part of a conversation

we're having with Father Sebastian Walsh,

Norbertine Priest of the Abbey of St Michael

in the Diocese of Orange, California, about marriage.

Something that had always seemed, at least in our culture, kind of obvious what marriage was.

It is not obvious anymore, and so we need help to get clear

definitions and clear understandings of what marriage is so that we'll know

what to do when we're married and we'll know how to talk about marriage and

share the reality of marriage in a world that

maybe has lost touch with that reality.

Father Walsh holds a master's in sacred theology and a doctorate in philosophy from the

pontifical University of St Thomas in Rome, also called Sacred The

and Doctorate in Philosophy from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas in Rome, also called the

Angelicum. Thanks for coming back for a second conversation, father.

Absolutely, my pleasure.

So maybe we should start again. By the way, if you miss part one,

go listen to part one, but just a quick review of the definition of

marriage, marriage as a natural phenomenon and as a supernatural phenomenon.

Absolutely.
