How does CCC 1666 refer to the family?

"The holy unit"
"The sacred household"
"The domestic church"
"The divine family"

The correct answer is: "The holy unit"

The reference to the family in CCC 1666 is "the domestic church." This term highlights the family as a community of faith and a place where members support each other spiritually. It emphasizes the idea that families play a crucial role in fostering a relationship with God and nurturing values and beliefs within the home. "The domestic church" reflects the concept that families are integral to the life of the Church as a whole, functioning as a small-scale reflection of the larger Church community. Within this framework, parents are seen as the primary educators of their children in faith, and the home is viewed as a space for prayer, moral teaching, and spiritual growth. The other options may express important ideas about family in theological contexts but do not accurately represent the terminology used in CCC 1666. "The holy unit," "the sacred household," and "the divine family" capture various aspects of family life but do not align specifically with the language and emphasis found in CCC 1666 regarding the unique role families have within the Church.
