Reformation of New England (the beginning)

This will be some what of a tease, but I wanted to mention a project that a number of us in the Presbytery are working on in the hope of better defining our purpose and vision for New England. QUESTION: Are we here to plant churches or are we here to bring the gospel to New England? We define our purpose as bringing reformation (the gospel) to every corner and aspect of society.

So far the discussion has been very interesting and already we are seeing some fruit in this area. I have written a paper on the subject entitled, "A Biblical & Historical Foundation for the Reformation of New England" It is currently being proofread by a number of colleagues and when it is updated, I will share some parts of it here on the blog.

A number of guys believe we are on the verge of something here, and I think they are right. As we have shared with some folks about this purpose and vision for NE, we see excitement and agreement that this makes sense.

God is a God of reformation, just examine the scriptures for yourself and you will see.
