A Symposium on Christian Reconstruction, Family Business, and Dominion Mark Rushdoony

The Pacific Northwest Christian Reconstruction Symposium presented the importance of Christian Reconstruction for Christian families and around the recognition of the tools of dominion that God has given to families for the home and the marketplace.

One early June weekend, in between swatting mosquitos and camp style dinner, we sat fellowshipping with many other Christian families in the Pacific Northwest. We learned about the origins and core ideas behind Christian Reconstruction from Mark Rushdoony, President of the Chalcedon Foundation, then about the principles related to separate spheres of influence from Tim Yarbrough. Michael Kloss, Pastor of Redeemer Church, inspired and edified with beautiful pictures of the glorious Kingdom of our Savior.

Entrepreneurs Joseph Graham, and Daniel Stachofsky discussed the Christian principles behind productive and service-oriented family businesses that work side-by-side with each other. They taught that God has given families tools that are meant to be honed and used for multi-generational productivity.

Susan Eby, author of AutumnSong.net blog, shared with wives and mothers the incredibly important place women have been given by the Lord in supporting their husbands and raising godly children.
