468908: Uniting Church and Family Conference                  - Audiobook on CD Uniting Church and Family Conference - Audiobook on CD
By The Vision Forum, Inc

America's home education movement is bringing about a renewal of biblical family life. As fathers and mothers turn their hearts to home, reject the idolatry of the modern youth culture, and seek a vision for strong family life, many are turning to the local church--only to find opposition. Sadly, many families are responding to the crisis of the local church by simply giving up. The tragic result is nomadic families that flit from church to church, or renegades who refuse to place themselves under the accountability of a local church. The damage to the families is incalculable. God requires His people to be under biblical local churches with biblical preaching, biblical church government, biblical ordinances, and biblical discipline. Learn about youth groups, the church as a family, the church local vs the church universal, family ministry, church discipline, men in leadership, house assemblies, church government and shepherding. 10 CDs.

By The Vision Forum, Inc

In August 2002, more than five hundred churchmen - including pastors, elders, and deacons - gathered in St. Louis for an historic conference dedicated to the reformation of the local church on a matter of pressing urgency: the relationship of the church to fatherhood and family. After more than a century of the devastating influence of feminism, government education, and mass marketing techniques on the philosophy of the local church, many parents are beginning to wonder whether church is still a safe place for their children.

In contrast, through movements like home education, key segments of the Evangelical church are experiencing a revival of interest in fatherhood and family. However, as fathers and mothers have begun to turn their hearts to home, many have turned to the local church only to find opposition. Sadly, some churches actually persecute families who want to worship as a family, or who express concern over church youth groups. The debt-burden carried by many local churches and the perceived need to subsidize the debt by bringing in new members - through ever-more-innovative, family-segregating programs - only makes the matter worse. Parents who object to such activities are deemed troublemakers.

Equally sad is the fact that many families have responded to the crisis in the local church by giving up. The tragic results is nomadic families who flit from church to church, or renegades who refuse to place themselves under the accountability of a local church. Here, too, the damage to the families is incalculable. God requires His people to be under biblical local churches with biblical preaching, biblical ordinances, and biblical discipline.

So how do we unite church and home? We need to start by reviving the doctrine of sola scriptura and returning to the biblical model for assembly life. Join R.C. Sproul, Jr., Doug Phillips, Phil Lancaster, John Thompson, and many others for an historic conference that seeks to examine this watershed issue. 12 hours on 10 cassettes in a sturdy binder.
