Do you relate to Jesus as a distant Lord, or as a spouse? In this episode, Nathaniel opens up the Church's bridal theology, including what it means for men, and explains why every Eucharist is a spousal union with Christ the bridegroom. Drawing on St. Francis Xavier and St. Francis of Assisi, he makes the case that the saints weren't crazy. They were just wildly in love.
