"We must have a special eye upon families,
to see that they are well-ordered,
and the duties of each relation performed.
The life of religion,
and the welfare and glory of both
the Church and the State,
depend much on family government and duty.
If we suffer the neglect of this,
we shall undo all.
I beseech you, therefore,
if you desire the reformation and welfare of your people do all you can to promote family religion."
--Richard Baxter
