The Family ID Assessment is a free, about-ten-minute inventory that helps a household notice its unique identity and start talking about where it is headed together.^1 Family ID describes it as similar to a personality test for the entire family, and its course site says the assessment gives insight into your Family Type and introduces language used throughout its courses.^2
From there, families can work through the Core 4 principles, Identity, Purpose, Direction, and Application, which Family ID uses to help a family name its strengths, define its mission, set goals, and apply them in daily life.^3 The free Family ID Masterclass carries 83 lessons built on those principles.^3 Family ID also invites families into a community of households committed to living with intentional direction, and its free iOS app carries teaching from Greg Gunn on restoring relationships, training a child's heart, and planning a family's future.^2
Greg and Rhonda Gunn founded Family ID in 1997 after leading families in their church through weekend experiences to write a family vision and goals; it became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2003.^2 The ministry's vision is to lay the foundation for many Godly generations by guiding families to discover identity in Christ, and its mission is to help families name their unique identity and purpose, create a lasting legacy, and develop leaders who strengthen families.^2 On FamilyLife Today, Greg explained the name this way: Family-iD stands for Intentional Direction, because every family is going to end up somewhere, but few are going to end up somewhere on purpose.^5
Workshop attendees have described the effect in generational terms:
"The healing that will take place due to the information in this conference will affect our family for generations." — Lori, quoted by MetroFamily Magazine^6
