Saint Hilary is the Doctor of Christ's Divinity. He was one of the Early Church Doctors and defended Jesus Christ as the Word of God. He is called the Doctor of Christ’s Divinity.
As bishop, he brilliantly defended the sacred humanity of Jesus. He was the only married Doctor of the Church and can readily identify with married couples. Hilary would wholeheartedly endorse the Retrouvaille program, listed in the link below, and all organizations and groups that keep couples together, strengthens them, bonds and unites them, and empowers them individually with their families, relatives, friends, associates and those they interact or communicate with regularly.
The church has many saints and blessed who were not priests, clergy or in a religious order and many are contained in the link below and the name of the book is Secular Saints and these include both married couples and individuals.
The Doctors And Secular Saints
Certainly, the Retrouvaille program is one the best programs to join for married couples and others should they experience difficulties, challenges, and serious problems in their marriages and are searching for unity and the solution with God’s grace. See link below.
Retrouvaille
Saint Hilary protected the church and its members by defeating Arianism which denied the divinity of Christ.
For those Christians who can not identify with Christ as God but think it is possible, don't be afraid to approach Hilary. If you feel reluctant to talk with anyone who has died for any reason, just imagine that Hilary is truly listening to you by God's power. If you are a non-believer, don't be afraid to investigate Hilary, for when he lived on earth, he too was a non-believer at one time. He was all these and more.
One of his titles was "The Athanasius of the West" after the great Eastern Doctor and The Father of Orthodoxy, St Athanasius.
Hilary was criticized, slandered, and banished from his country. By refusing to obey the Emperor, he was exiled. He boldly and bravely defended Jesus Christ in his fullness, both sacred humanity and eternal divinity.
Saint Hilary clung to his faith when most yielded to worldly, authoritative powers and influences. He surrendered to God, lived his faith, faithfully, and would not be intimidated.
We can learn a lot from his life summary below and through the many links herein.
