I wonder if anyone else will find this as refreshingly simple as I did.

I did! thank you! :like:

Thank you for the video.  I liked it a lot.  The only point I would touch on is there are times where men and women are called to the religious life even thought they originally wanted to have a family.  I knew a priest who, before he became a priest, was a vice-president of a company, had a fiance, and was intent on getting married and starting a family when he received the calling to the priesthood.  He chose to follow his calling and offered his career and chance at having physical children as gifts to God.   He is a great a Fr. I think because he would have made a great father. ;)

I agree, and I know people like that too. There have been times when I thought I was going to marry and have a family. The fact that the ideas in the video are so simple mean that a lot of 'grey areas' in life are left out. But as a basic approach, I think it's great.
