Special Video Message: Happy Thanksgiving from Our Team

What an incredibly challenging and fruitful year it has been. Through the victories and defeats, pandemic and social unrest, we have been sustained by the Lord’s good grace and rest in the truth that HE is still sovereign over all things. We are incredibly grateful to all our supporters who have stood strong with us this year. Know that our entire team remains committed as ever to our mission of advancing biblical values across Texas. 

We could not advance in our mission without your generous support, prayers, and activism that has enabled us to stand for life, religious freedom, and family values in Texas.  We are grateful to live in a state where these values are honored, and so many of you share our passion for defending them. As you and your family gather for Thanksgiving, we pray that God will bless you and keep us all safe this Thanksgiving!

SBOE Stands Strong Promoting Abstinence Over LGBT Politics

After almost a year and a half of advocacy on the part of our team and many others, the elected 15-member Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) decisively voted to finalize abstinence-focused Health standards for K-12 students this past Friday. The sex education strand in the Health standards focus on sexual risk avoidance and does not include the topics of sexual orientation, gender identity, and abortion, even though the far left tried to get these controversial topics added. 

While some LGBT and abortion activists, like Planned Parenthood, pleaded for so-called comprehensive sex education in June and September of this year, many more health educators, parents, and citizens encouraged the State Board of Education to adopt abstinence focused sex education standards that do not contain LGBT topics. This included over 17,000 messages sent by our supporters in opposition to the radical policies pushed by liberal political activists.
