day no. 15,804: Christendom, in a nutshell

"We try to lay out in the following pages, namely a love of beauty, an Augustinian appreciation for the sovereignty of God, the chasm between pagan and Christian, the centrality of laughter, the importance of celebration, a covenantal wholeness of family and society, a submissive hierarchicalism, respect for good traditions, sphere sovereignty, anti-papalism, a harmonization of technology and humanity, an agrarian calm, disciplined silence, the glory of a unified Holy Church, a skepticism of novelty, and a triumphant, peaceful hope for the future of Christendom." - Douglas Wilson, Angels in the Architecture

That is the world the meek will inherit: one of culture and liturgy and tradition and spontaneity. That is the better country for which my heart longs and for which my hands labor to see come.

Hebrews 11:16
They desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
