Overview
Theme "Equipping Families in Your Church"
This conference is dedicated to helping church leaders understand the elements of Biblical family life, and work effectively to strengthen families in their churches. It is critical that church leaders excel in casting vision through teaching, setting an example and implementing practical means to equip their families. Only the Word of God is adequate for this task.
When families are weak, local churches are weak. Weak marriages and weak family worship and weak child raising wreaks havoc in local churches. The reality is, the quality of family life has a profound impact on the quality of church life. Where you have disorder in the family, it will eventually show itself in the church. How do you establish biblically ordered families? What do you do when families are out of order? This conference seeks to answer these questions from a Biblical perspective.
Whether you have families who need to understand biblical order for the first time or those who need to return to biblical order, this conference is for you.

Speakers
Scott T. Brown is the president of Church and Family Life and pastor at Hope Baptist Church in Wake Forest, North Carolina. Scott graduated from California State University in Fullerton with a degree in History and received a Master of Divinity degree from Talbot School of Theology. He gives most of his time to local pastoral ministry, expository preaching, conferences on church and family reformation. Scott helps people think through the two greatest institutions God has provided — the church and the family.
Monty Simao is the pastor of Scandia Bible Church, a Reformed Baptist Church in Poulsbo, Washington. He is also an entrepreneur and co-owner of MAD Custom Coating, a thin-film ceramic application company headquartered in Bremerton, Washington. He has been married for 23 years and has nine children.
Cary Green grew up in a loose Catholic home near Lake Tapps, Washington. While attending Western Washington University, he got saved, by the grace of God! Even as a new believer he knew God was calling him to the ministry, so after college he attended The Master’s Seminary in Sun Valley, California. While there, he met his wife, Lois, and a year after graduating, he and his family left for nearly ten years of ministry in East Berlin. During those years they helped to plant a church (Bible Church of Berlin) and establish a Bible school (European Bible Training Center), both of which are still going strong today. The LORD moved the Green family back to the USA in 2009, where Cary again became involved in planting a church–originally called Everett Bible Church, now Cornerstone Bible Church. It is his joy and privilege to pastor this congregation. Cary and Lois have fourteen children.
David Eddy is the Senior Pastor of Manchester Community Church, located in Washington State overlooking the beautiful Puget Sound. In 1993, he was given the opportunity to pastor at the church where he and his wife Carol had attended from childhood. That same year, they welcomed their first baby into their home. Since that time, they have had the joy and privilege of serving the church and home educating their ten children, who are now ages 7 to 22.
Scott LaPierre is the senior pastor of Woodland Christian Church in southwest Washington, as well as an author and conference speaker. He and his wife, Katie, grew up together in northern California, and they have been blessed with seven children (and hopefully more) that they homeschool. Scott invests most of his energy in his home and church families, and his free time is usually spent writing. You can learn more at ScottLaPierre.org.
