With growing acceptance for assisted suicide and euthanasia around the world, this talk proposes that people pause to reflect on important questions such as, How do we alleviate suffering without eliminating sufferers? How can we get creative in the face of physical pain and emotional anguish? Are all human desires ordered and worth acting on? Using the art of storytelling and question asking, Stephanie takes a heavy topic and leaves the audience uplifted and inspired.

The Book of Malachi states bluntly that "God hates divorce," and Christ explicitly forbade divorce for Christians. However, many Catholics today remain confused about the actual teachings of Christ and His Church when it comes to this difficult issue, and Catholics have been divorcing at an alarming rate.

Scripture, the Catechism, and Canon Law are clear about the immorality of divorce, and in this talk, we will revisit the clear teachings of the Church in order to get our bearings on a subject that was once well understood -- and must be again.
