Do you wonder how we have true freedom in marriage through Natural Family Planning (NFP)? This week, we unpack how NFP isn’t about restriction - it’s about choosing the good for each other, building virtue, and trusting God’s design.

We explore why NFP is good news for couples seeking unity, trust, and authentic love and how it’s rooted in virtues like self-mastery, obedience, and trust in God.

With relatable examples, gentle challenges, and encouragement to explore the Catechism, this conversation reframes what freedom really means in married life.

Whether you’re a seasoned NFP couple, just starting out, or feeling unsure, we invite you to re-examine what “freedom” really looks like in marriage - and how NFP can lead to deeper intimacy, unity, and spiritual growth.
