And it is not by chance Marriage is linked to faith, but not in a general way. Marriage, as a union of faithful and indissoluble love, is based upon the grace that comes from the triune God, who in Christ loved us with a faithful love, even to the Cross. (Benedict XVI, Homily at the Opening of the Synod on the new evangelization, October 7, 2012)
