Chesterton on the Only State that Creates and Loves Its Own Citizenshttps://www.thetechnoscholar.com/book-reviews/2024/story-of-the-family-gk-chesterton/Fri, 19 Jul 2024 00:00:00 -0500https://www.thetechnoscholar.com/book-reviews/2024/story-of-the-family-gk-chesterton/<p>G.K. Chesterton lived in the early 1900s and wrote on the issues of his time. He was a great defender of Christian orthodoxy. In this book, Dale Ahlquist compiled a collection of poems, quotations, excerpts, and essays on the family from G.K. Chesterton. In today’s society, we see all kinds of attacks on the family around feminism, birth control, divorce, promiscuity, etc. To quote Ecclesiastes 1:9, “There is nothing new under the sun.” It was the same in G.K. Chesterton’s time. He speaks on these topics, which are just as relevant today.</p>Book Reviews
