Today, we’re diving into one of Fulton Sheen’s most beautiful reflections on love and the role of women in shaping relationships and society: "When a man loves a woman, he has to become worthy of her. The higher her virtue, the more noble her character, the more devoted she is to truth, justice, goodness, the more a man has to aspire to be worthy of her. The history of civilization could actually be written in terms of the level of its women." In this episode, we reflect on what it means for love to inspire transformation and how women, through virtue and grace, have the power to uplift not just the men who love them, but entire civilizations. Here’s what we’ll explore: The role of virtue in relationships and how it sets a standard that encourages growth. The historical and cultural impact of women who have lived boldly in their dignity. How love, rooted in truth and goodness, becomes a force for real change. This isn’t just a conversation about love—it’s about reclaiming the beauty and purpose God designed for women. Together, let’s reflect on how we can live with intention, embrace our worth, and inspire others to strive for higher things.
