Session 7: The Family as Domestic Church
The family is not merely a social unit but a theological reality; the primordial community in which persons are formed and love is learned. This session examines the Church's account of marriage and family as a school of the virtues, and honestly addresses the wounds that distort family life and the tradition's account of healing, mercy, and accompaniment.
