The Most Essential Thing for the Christian Life

Vice President of Outreach

We at American Family Association believe that God has communicated absolute truth to mankind and that all people are subject to the authority of God's Word at all times. Therefore we believe that a culture based on biblical truth best serves the well being of our nation and our families, in accordance with the vision of our founding documents; and that personal transformation through the gospel of Jesus Christ is the greatest agent of biblical change in any culture.

The gospel is of first importance. Though we deal with people, we don't wrestle against flesh and blood. We know this is a spiritual battle for the souls of mankind. The manifestation of spiritual wickedness in God's world is real, powerful and deceiving. As good as we may be at times, the bottom line is we are all sinners by nature and by choice. But thanks be to Christ who is the sacrifice for our sins. Because of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus, we can be born again with the promise of eternal life with God. To be reborn spiritually we must admit we are sinners and believe in our hearts that God raised Christ from the dead. There is no better feeling than to be grafted into the family of God. 

We see God’s love for us through the sacrifice of His Son. It’s because of God's love for us that we are compelled to share this good news with you and live a life consistent with a biblical worldview. Maybe you have heard this many times, but it has not drawn you to repentance. We want to invite you to do that today. Don’t wait any longer. Or maybe you have experienced salvation but needed a reminder of God's love for you to restore the joy of your salvation.

"For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve" (1 Corinthians 15:3-5).
