Join Ellen as she talks with Father Paul Scalia as they discuss How Should Catholics Respond to Same-Sex Attraction? 

Our culture has no shortage of opinions about love and identity, but as Catholics, we’re called to love as Christ loves. How do we do that when it comes to same-sex attraction and the broader LGBT community? 

Father Scalia, a priest of the Diocese of Arlington, known for his clear and compassionate teaching on the Church’s approach to human sexuality teaches us how to respond as Catholic Christians. Drawing from his experience with the Courage apostolate, he’ll help us navigate how to accompany loved ones, balance truth with charity, and create a welcoming yet faithful witness in today’s culture.

Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.
Patience obtains all things
Whoever has God lacks nothing;
God alone suffices.

-- St. Teresa of Avila
