Today, Ben Eriksen is joined by Thomas Jacobi, editor at Ignatius Press, and Alexander von Lengerke, YOUCAT illustrator, to talk about the new “YOUCAT Love Forever book.” The three of them discuss the importance of this work not only for college students, but also for young adults, engaged couples, and even those that are already married. This book explains the Church’s teaching on gender and sexual morality. But it isn’t a list of don’ts; instead, it articulates the beauty of God’s understanding of love and what beautiful possibilities there are for those that avail themselves of His love and plan for their lives.
Yet this book isn’t just a moral guide and explainer; it seeks to give people concrete practical answers to specific and detailed questions about dating, engagement, friendship, and marital struggles. We truly believe this book can revolutionize how Catholics understand love, and we hope it finds its way into the hands of every person.

The Massacre and Wedding of Magdeburg
Monday May 18, 2026
Monday May 18, 2026
This book is a true classic of Western Literature and a must read for those who want to deepen their spiritual life.
Get Your Copy of the “Wedding of Magdeburg” here: https://ignatius.com/the-wedding-of-madeburg-wedmp/?searchid=0&search_query=magdeburg
The Battle of Magdeburg was a real historical event where Protestants and Catholics fought over the city of Magdeburg. This battle was fought to force the Protestants to become Catholic but ended in the massacre of two thirds of the population.
From these horrific events, Gertrud von le Forte writes a novel about an actual wedding in Magdeburg. This novel has been recently translated and published by Ignatius Press, and it is championed by Vivian Dudro. Andrew Petiprin joins Vivian to discuss the historical background of Gertrud von le Forte and the novel itself. They discuss some of the main themes of the novel such as strength in weakness, ecumenism, and Mariology. “The Wedding of Magdeburg” is a true and as of yet unknown classic; you won’t regret picking up this book.
