The Differences Between Men and Women

ASCENSION
About this episode

Are men and women really that different? And if so, what do those differences reveal about how we relate to one another?

Fr. Mike Schmitz explores how the differences between men and women are not reasons for division, but reminders of our need for one another. Rather than pitting the sexes against each other, our unique strengths and perspectives can help us pursue truth, navigate difficult decisions, and flourish together.
