Monday Jun 16, 2025
Mature and Sensitive Topics Discussed in This Episode
Today, more than ever, we are suffering from the ramifications of the sexual revolution that began over 50 years ago. And in this episode, Dr. Nathaniel Blake joins Andrew Petiprin to discuss why the Church’s teachings on human sexuality are correct and why abandoning them has led people away from true human flourishing.
Dr. Blake addresses many of today’s hot button issues ranging from abortion, sex outside of marriage, homosexuality, and transgenderism. He emphasizes that by embracing God’s mercy and returning to a traditional understanding of human sexuality will ultimately lead to greater happiness and fulfillment. If you enjoy this podcast, then make sure to pick up a copy of Dr. Blake’s new book “Victims of the Revolution: How the Sexual Liberation Hurt all of Us.”
