Promoting Family
The family forms the basis – the very foundation – of a free and prosperous society. The family is the best health, education and welfare institution for children ever devised – and that is because it is an institution designed by our Creator – a loving and merciful God. We also believe that government – no matter how well-intentioned – is a woefully inadequate substitute for family or a mom and a dad. Family starts with a healthy marriage between one man and one woman, who raise their children in an intentional and loving home. Not only does this align with God’s design for sexuality and family, but studies have proven time and again that they are key to a flourishing culture and society.
