In a truly life-changing way, The First Society offers a cure for the ills of western society that gets back to the roots of human community – marriage and the family. Not just any notion of marriage, Hahn argues, but the sacramental understanding for which we were created. As the publisher puts it:
Everyone seems to agree that Western Civilization is in trouble. The problem is that no one agrees on what has gone wrong or what to do about it. Some think we have too much government, some not enough; some think we have too much capitalism, some not enough; some think we have too much sexual freedom, some not enough.
But what if the problem is much more fundamental? What if the problem goes to the very foundations of who we are as human beings in relationship with God?
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.
It’s a provocative and hope-filled book, in which Dr. Hahn asserts that “now is the time to speak Catholic truth with clarity and boldness.” At Aleteia – where our name literally means “truth” – we agree, and we can’t wait to share this remarkable book with you.
