Over a century later and the words of His Grace Irenaius ring just as true today. Looking forward to re-reading this short work in another year or two

Saw this in the bookstore at St. Raphael's in Iowa City. Very struck by the chapter on obedience, and how the home environment must be obedient to God, Church, and law before there is any hope for obedience in the children.
