Little Oratory of the Domestic Church

A staging ground for ideas on how to sanctify your home and householdto raise up a generation of good Christians, and to establish within your homes the foothold of a Renewed Christendom.  

What the Monastics did during the collapse of Rome, we, post-liberals, should do as well as we model ourselves on St. Benedict and build upon the civilizational ash heap of liberal modernity.  We must come to demand more from ourselves and each other.  We must begin again. 

At a time when spiritual leadership is often absent, Christian fathers and mothers must become resourceful not by inventing new fanciful notions of the good life and trusting in themselves but by showing the humility of the Prodigal Son by making use of the great heritage of Christendom and the wisdom of the saints who achieved real and secure happiness in this life.

NOTE: I have no authority to tell you what to do, but below is an outline of my own family's plan.  Take what you wish, dear reader!
