The Next 500 Years: 2017 National Conference
Reformation occurs when the light of God's Word shines into places of spiritual and cultural darkness and transforms the people of God. This is why the motto of the Protestant Reformation became "After Darkness, Light." This session sets the stage for the conference by considering why reformation was needed in the sixteenth century and why it is needed today.
