Listener questions and comments:

• Mark - If you're going to marry someone and you're a Catholic, you should marry another Catholic. You would think that other religions are similar, but they're not, especially when it comes to contraception. It’s a big red flag.
• Miriam - A friend is pregnant and she's marrying the father of their baby. She has two other children from a previous relationship. How should they set up their finances?
• Tom - I do marriage preparation. I'm blown away by the fact that the preparation programs are not even mentioned.
• Michael - My wife and I are separated. I am a recovering sex addict and 10 months sober. I am struggling to communicate with my wife because she just walks away when we are not getting anywhere. What should I do?
