Theology of Home II: The Spiritual Art of Homemaking, by Gress and Mering, photog. Baile

“The clarion call of the Christian is to right an upside down world through the servant leadership introduced to us by God himself.” (Page 32)

Theology of Home: The Spiritual Art of Homemaking turns all misguided notions about homemaking on their heads, shining new light on the role of a homemaker. It will show you how homemaking is tied to the deepest truths of the Faith with an honest and fearless understanding of the modern world. Rather than looking for inspiration in the 1950s and in the many harmful stereotypes of women in that time, Gress and Mering forge a new path by looking at the precious and unique gifts women can offer to those they love. Filled with beautiful photography and interviews with inspiring women, The Spiritual Art of Homemaking examines:

What makes someone a homemaker and how we can look at the role with fresh eyes
How the dots between our love for home and the role of caring for a home can be reconnected
How we can reorient our purpose from caring only for ourselves to caring for others 
How to bear fruit in the various ways in which God calls us
How to foster the qualities that make us particularly adept and skillful at creating a home
The nature of both physical and spiritual motherhood
How our Mother, the Church, gifts us the means to fulfill the role of homemaker
