Why We Love Natural Family Planning

Following up on their first two videos in this series, which cover the pill and contraception, Jackie and Bobby discuss the benefits and the beauty of natural family planning (NFP).

Here’s what the Catechism has to say about NFP, or “periodic continence”:

These methods respect the bodies of the spouses, encourage tenderness between them, and favor the education of an authentic freedom.
