The Church and the Land

“Leave the garden cities and the flesh pots, not to scorn suburbia, but to worship God.”

In a world gripped by industrial decay and spiritual drift, The Church and the Land issues a clarion call to Catholics yearning for a return to the land. This collection of fiery essays challenges the modern obsession with urban sprawl and wage slavery, urging a courageous exodus back to the land. Drawing on the wisdom of Pope Leo XIII’s Rerum Novarum and the timeless truths of Scripture, it paints a vision of contemplative communities rooted in faith—where families thrive, worship is work, and the earth yields its bounty for God’s glory.

These pages expose the moral bankruptcy of industrialized towns, where crowded slums and empty cradles threaten the soul of civilization. Yet hope shines through: a return to the land is not mere nostalgia but a divine mandate, a crusade to restore the family, rebuild the Church, and reclaim the freedom of God’s creation. For Catholics longing to live heroically, to cultivate both soil and soul, this book is a map—a summons to seek first the Kingdom of God.
