In this episode of Purposely Catholic, we’re joined by Dr. Matthew McKenna to explore masculinity, spiritual fatherhood, and the deeper meaning behind the male priesthood. We discuss the crisis of modern sexuality, what authentic self-sacrificing love looks like in marriage and fatherhood, and how cultural distortions have led us away from God’s designThe conversation then turns to IVF—what it is, why the Church teaches against it, and why good intentions don’t justify immoral means. Dr. McKenna breaks down the dignity of human life, the hidden cost of IVF, and faithful alternatives rooted in trust, sacrifice, and love.✴️ 👉 Articles: https://catholicexchange.com/understanding-the-mass-and-the-male-only-priesthood-with-st-bonaventure/https://catholicexchange.com/even-if-embryo-adoption-is-moral-you-shouldnt-do-it/Chapters:00:00 Intro#purposelycatholic
