Virginity and St. Scholastica - The Innner Life - February 10, 2025

The Inner Life

Fr. Eric Nielsen joins Patrick to discuss Virginity and St. Scholastica * (4:25) Who was Saint Scholastica * (10:12) Abby- I think this conversation is very important. The secular world really undermines it. Men in particular don't approach it in the right way. It impacts women differently. * (17:29) Malory - I'm dealing with a situation with my 12-yr old daughter. She is aware to some degree some sort of sexuality.  To my knowledge, she is a virgin. Want to know how to address this. (23:24) Break 1 * How do you talk with a 10 and 12 year olds about chastity and virginity? * (30:10) Elizabeth - I know there's a lot of female saints who have the title virgin, but I'm not aware of any male saints who have that title.  Why is that? * What is a Virgin Soul? * (35:14) Adrianna - Want to shed some light on how I introduced this to my little ones. My girls are now chaste at 19 years old. (40:03) Break 2 * What are some safeguards we can put up to help our children? * (46:57) Laura – How can I stay strong in wanting to remain a virgin if it seems to be keeping me from getting married?
