J.I. Packer has said that the Puritans were the godliest generation since the first century church, for something amazing happened in the Puritan era. But when that generation passed from the scene, something of great importance was quickly lost from the consciousness of the church — the biblical doctrine of the family. Now, it is time to study it, recover it, expand upon it, and move forward for the glory of God.

We need a reformation of biblical family life, and there will be no reformation without setting the doctrinal foundation and having the courage for a radical turning.

Today, God is raising up a new generation of believers who are recovering this important doctrine. Historian Dan Ford, Pastor Jeff Pollard of Mount Zion Ministries, and Hope Baptist Church elders Jason Dohm, Steve Breagy and Dan Horn, join Scott Brown, director of the National Center for Family Integrated Churches, this weekend, May 9th and 10th, to host a unique and timely conference on the Puritan Family Reformation. This conference will work to remember what the Puritans knew and build upon it as a foundation for the future. They will go back to where we lost our way, and pick up the trail and move forward.

It’s time to be about the business of recovering the Biblical doctrine of the family in our generation. The church in each generation is in need of reformation and renewal on several fronts. Family reformation is not the only area, but it is one of the key areas. This can only happen when the church has a high view of God, as evidenced by a high view of the Word of God. Reformation will break out when we take seriously what He has said, instead of taking Him lightly.
