Why might the church offer marriage preparation classes?

To teach about other religions
To train parents in being good Catholic parents
To support financial planning
To organize social events

The correct answer is: To train parents in being good Catholic parents

The church offers marriage preparation classes primarily to help couples understand the significance of marriage within the context of the faith and to prepare them for their roles as spouses and possibly parents. These classes often cover the teachings of the church regarding family life, the importance of commitment, communication skills, and how to nurture a loving relationship in accordance with religious values. While aspects of parenting might be included, the main focus is on the couple's relationship and their responsibilities to one another in the context of Catholic teachings. The other options do not align with the primary purpose of marriage preparation classes. Teaching about other religions does not specifically relate to marriage preparation. Financial planning may be discussed, but it is not a core focus of these classes. Organizing social events is not a central aim, as the emphasis is on fostering a spiritual and practical understanding of marriage rather than social engagement.
