The Heart's Desire Greg Schutte, MSW, LISW-S

In this episode, Greg discusses the ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, the sinful nature of the people who lived there, and how our actions today can make up for the sins of others. 

Marriage has the opportunity to be a true reflection of the Trinitarian love of God, but only if we are willing to seek God's grace into our relationship. This episode was inspired by the recent Church celebration of the Trinity and the bible readings from this celebration.

We start a new season of the "Heart's Desire" by taking a look at the readings from the Mass this week on the Acts of the Apostles. Though persecuted and beaten down for their faith, the early Christians found joy in sharing God's Good News to all the world. Are we also willing to share that same light through how we live out our marriage and family life? Christ is still today needing us to witness to the world through the gift of our lives.

Based off of the gospel reading for today (March 14, 2019) from Matthew 7, Greg talks about the importance of inviting God's grace into your marriage from the very beginning. We shouldn't be looking to God only when things are at their worst, but should be seeking his help throughout our married life. Seeking and asking for God's grace is vitally important for our marital success......so don't knock it! 

This new series, within the Heart's Desire podcast, takes more of a round-robin approach to each topic. In these "Stump the Chump" sessions, Greg Schutte fields tough questions on different, sometimes difficult, relationship topics from some of his colleagues. In this episode, Greg is joined by Dontae, Kim, and Terrence to discuss the topic of infidelity. 

This is the last session of the 7 part series on building a Eucharistic marriage. In this episode, Greg talks about the importance of understanding and "feeding" your spouse's needs. We do this often in our dating phase, but often forget to be Eucharistic well into our married life.
