Friends,

When a marriage ends, many Catholics are left asking: Where do I belong now? Am I still part of the Church? And can I ever remarry?

In this episode, we explore the reality of divorce through the lens of the Catholic faith and the often misunderstood annulment process.

My guest, Theresa Matters, shares her personal journey through divorce and her experience seeking an annulment, and offers insight into how the Church carefully examines the validity of a marriage and what it means to find freedom, clarity, and healing on the other side.

Whether you are:

• A Catholic navigating life after divorce
• Considering the annulment process
• Or simply curious about what the Church actually teaches

This episode will help you understand the truth and the compassion at the heart of the Church.

• What the Catholic Church teaches about marriage and divorce
• The difference between divorce and annulment
• Common misconceptions about annulments (“Is it just Catholic divorce?”)
• What the annulment process actually looks like
• How to know if you might be eligible
• A personal story of healing and starting over
