Product Details
In The First Society: The Sacrament of Matrimony and the Restoration of the Social Order, Scott Hahn makes the startling claim that our society’s ills and its cures are rooted in whether we reject or accept the divine graces made available through the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony. The First Society argues, is social in his very nature. We were created for community. The family, formed through the Sacrament of Matrimony, is the most basic building block of every society—whether we like it or not. The First Society claims that we’ve corrupted marriage, and so we have a corrupt society. If we get marriage right, our society, through God’s grace, will flourish.
But The First Society also shows this is so because Matrimony, like all the sacraments, heals and elevates human nature. Without marriage, our ambitions toward a just social order will remain forever foolhardy. With it, the seemingly impossible, a truly peaceful and humane civilization, becomes possible. The First Society is a hardcover book with 198 pages.
