I grew up on a street where I was related to more than half of the people living there. My great, great grandfather owned all of that land, and it was subdivided between his children (he had 12) and grandchildren over time. I have thought of trying to emulate his example in the interest of planting a natural Christian community over the course of a couple of generations. Obviously, it would be necessary to have a church nearby, and possibly a school. @BayouHuguenot, do you think that the natural development of such a community would keep it from many of the common pitfalls of "intentional communities?"
The goal would be the preservation of a Reformed heritage, similar to the way that the people belonging to the NRC and FRCNA churches have been able to preserve their distinctiveness without absolutely cloistering.
