Altar and Throne
Have you realized that there is something fundamentally wrong with American society today? Have you realized that politics and modernist religion offers no viable solution to this nagging sense of impending doom? Do you struggle finding purpose and discerning what is Truth in this godless modern culture? Are you looking for practical solutions for managing this unprecedented situation?
Marcus Veritas and Antoninus Numine, two traditional Catholic family men, attack these questions head on as they share their real-world experiences with a broad variety of experts as we mine the truths and traditions of historical Western Christendom in search of inspiration and life changing strategies that have been intentionally suppressed over the years. Altar and throne, the two principle institutions of Western Christendom, guide us as we take head on such topics as spiritual warfare, exposing New Age Gnosticism, building economic solidarity, preparing for death, empowering marital life, raising virtuous children, restoring the natural moral law to politics, counter-revolutionary politics, and even establishing an American monarchy—nothing is off the table. Join us on our journey as we navigate the pitfalls and mind-numbing insanity of postmodern America.
