The Church's response to the challenges posed by feudalism included initiatives aimed at mitigating social instability and moral issues. Among the options provided, the Truce of God was specifically meant to counteract what the Church saw as the "general failure of feudalism."

The Truce of God was a movement that sought to impose restrictions on warfare during certain times, especially on holy days, and was part of a broader effort by the Church to reduce violence among feudal lords and their knights. By attempting to limit conflicts, the Church aimed to promote peace and order in a time marked by frequent local wars and power struggles characteristic of the feudal system.

Thus, the correct response is the Truce of God.
