Doug talks with his daughter Emily about seeing the beatification of Bishop Sheen in person. Doug also covers a few listener emails before getting into dating advice, including conversion to Catholicism within a marriage, jealousy in relationships, and navigating purity while dating. Listener Questions and Comments: • Matt - Should I pursue conversion to Catholicism at the expense of my marriage? He has been married for seven years but is being drawn to Catholicism, and his wife is not very happy about it. (11:51) • Mark - Words of encouragement for Matt.

(31:07) • Samantha - How do you maintain purity while dating when you and your partner are not on the same page? She asks when it is time to walk away while also wanting to get engaged and married sooner rather than later because living purity is becoming difficult.
