Book excerpt: Over the past few decades, poverty, underdevelopment and consistent attacks on traditional values have severely ruptured Caribbean family life. The escalation of intrafamily and societal violence, alongside increasingly influential gender identity and abortion lobbies, give only partial evidence of its deterioration. But families hold a God-given key to recovery within themselves: discovering and living out their authentic identity as domestic Church. In these pages, Archbishop Gordon illustrates how families can weather those storms and come to healing through mercy, honesty, inner work and growth in individual and family holiness. His vision of the missioned family as a powerful agent of transformation in the wider Church and society through cooperation with other families, parishes and ecclesial movements and communities may prove an essential strategy for our times.
