The Self-Governance Matrix
Three domains — Family, Street, Town — by three duties — Fidelity, Discernment, Stewardship. Nine cells. Each one grounded in two authorities: the American Founders and the Church Fathers.
This page is the working record of that grounding. Every passage here was found by searching the full text of both bodies of work, chosen by hand, and then checked back against the source file it came from. Nothing is quoted from memory. How this works →

Beyond the grid
The book also carries material that belongs to a whole duty, a whole domain, or the diagnostic questions themselves rather than to any single cell. These are tracked separately and never folded into the nine.
