Summary/Abstract: In the light of the post-synodal exhortation Amoris Laetitia, this article studies « the gospel of the family « and the importance of family relationships in social life. Today, there is an « omnipresent need for a healthy injection of family spirit » (AL 183). The encyclical Fratelli tutti takes up this need and invites all to promote fraternity and social friendship in our globalized society, that « makes us neighbors but does not make us brothers. « This articleasserts that the family is fundamental in the development of our four fundamental relationships (1st part) and in education (2nd part). Furthermore, the family introduces fraternity into the world (3rd part) and it is the principal agent of integral ecology (4th part).
