| Title: | Living Together - Pennsylvania Bishops |
| URL: | http://catholiceducation.org/articles/sexuality/se0037.html |
| Description: | If you are honest with yourself, every practical consideration will tell you that separating before marriage is the right thing to do. It is a decision to turn away from sin and to follow Christ and His teaching. That is always the right decision. But it’s a good decision for other important reasons, too. Catholic teaching in this matter brings rich blessings to those couples who willingly accept it. The Good News of Jesus frees you to enjoy intimacy even more. |

| Title: | Chastity Before Marriage: A Fresh Perspective |
| URL: | http://catholiceducation.org/articles/sexuality/se0040.html |
| Description: | The experience of chastity as a negative phenomenon must be replaced with an experience of chastity as an entirely positive phenomenon. The Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 2350) wonderfully contains this positive message: “Those who are engaged to marry are called to live chastity in continence. They should see in this time of testing a discovery of mutual respect, an apprenticeship in fidelity, and the hope of receiving one another from God. They should reserve for marriage the expression of affection that belongs to married love. They will help each other grow in chastity.” What follows is a meditation on, an unraveling of, that message. |

| Title: | How Splitting Up Brought Them Together |
| URL: | http://catholiceducation.org/articles/sexuality/se0056.html |
| Description: | "Cohabiting is far from harmless," said Father Vic. "Did you know that sociological studies show that living together before marriage increases the risk of divorce — by as much as 50%? Former cohabiters have higher levels of conflict, abuse and violence, plus overall lower levels of happiness." He called cohabitation "training for divorce." |

| Title: | The Pope's Theology of the Body |
| URL: | http://catholiceducation.org/articles/sexuality/se0058.html |
| Description: | The Holy Father presents a vision of marriage and sexuality never before articulated, but few people have been exposed in any depth to his revolutionary insights. Many simply find his scholarly approach too difficult. This doesn't mean that his message is reserved for the elite. It does require, however, a particular effort from those who present his teaching, and from those who wish to understand it, if the Pope's words are to become bread broken for all. |
