I don't know whether reformational is the correct word ? Reformation relates to the catholics church, which clearly is a false religion (catholics either don't read the bible or if they do they don't want to/ can't understand the bible).
Today it would be best to teach what the bible really says rather to reform worldly constructions
I am in (still) in an Anglican church in the UK who oppose to the "Living in Love and faith" which is good, but on the other side they fail to leave the church of England and are very busy to tell the congregation they support and are supported by the CEEC which is the traditional movement within the church of England.
Unfortunately this is only an empty and false promise, 2nd in command of the Ceec is Ed Shaw, a same sex attracted (!!) Christian.
In short, my church opposes the "living in love and faith" movement only to hand over hopes to a same sex attracted false prophet within the church of England. When i highlighted this to some of the clergy within our church that we ought to leave the CoE they referred to Martin Luther saying " he didnt leave the catholics church"
in my opinion this is wrong, as Martin Luther helped to spread the word, common prople didn't know what the Bible really said 500 years ago, which is different today, we can know the meaning of the word and it instructs us to avoid them (Eph 5:11, Math 7:15, Rom 16:17-18) the only conclusion is to critisize the catholic church and LEAVE the organisation of methodist or church of England. These organisations are run by a panel of sinners who think they do follow the word of God but they don't.
There is no time to renew as we know whats right, we are in the end times and we need to warn people to get ouf these false organisations.
Reformation need not be limited to the reforms of the 16thC. I would argue the CofE needs another reformation today, for many of the reasons you mention, and more! Some may be called to stay and "fight the long defeat", or perhaps by God's grace to see a change of course. Many more will need to leave, for sure.
