Marriage’s Context Within Salvation History — Past, Present, and Future, by Jack Rigert

By Jack Rigert, Catholic Exchange - In a world increasingly confused about the meaning of love, identity, and commitment, the Church lifts up marriage not merely as a cultural tradition, but as a divine and sacred reality. Marriage is a sacrament—a visible sign instituted by Christ that communicates grace.

Because Nawrocki campaigned against the mass immigration policy of Brussels while promoting conservative Catholic values and Polish nationalism.
