Description: The sexual revolution promised freedom but led to confusion and destruction. Now, God is calling YOU to rise up and be part of a new sexual revolution, one that’s rooted in His design for sex and gender. This is the only path to true liberty and fulfillment, and it starts with you.

Our sex and gender are gifts from God, reflecting His image. It's time for the Church to stand firm in truth, to minister to one another, heal the brokenhearted, and love as Jesus loved. YOU have a role to play in this revolution.

Don’t wait for change to happen, be the change. Our events will equip you to take action, deepen your intimacy with God, and lead this new sexual revolution in your church, family, and community.

It’s time to step up and make a difference. Are you ready?
