What happens when you take a human ear, put a splash of John Cassian in it, pour some wisbits from Hugh of St. Victor on top, and then pepper it with a little Plato? You get a podcast episode that talks about domestic disorder and patterns of fear, frustration, and freakouts. You get a conversation about household habits—parents as abbots and children as mini-monks.

In this episode, Chris and Kyle explore the notion of a family Rule. A Rule is a document with instructions for a single house to monitor and moderate individuals goods within community. It aims to make everybody's lifestyle consistent with our Lord's Kingdom. It sanctifies our shuffle. So gone is the day of letting the tiny tyrants throw their wills around willy-nilly. Get yoself a Rule.

Welcome to another episode of Two Pour Spirits.

Two Pour Spirits is a podcast of Project : Neighbor. Project : Neighbor is a theological think tank and spiritual training ground for the Church and the common good. We think theologically about everything from soil to sky, and disciple believers from crib to casket. We draw widely from the catholic Christian tradition, are ecumenically-oriented, and practically-minded.

Project : Neighbor is co-directed by Kyle David Bennett and Christopher Cimorelli.
