With biblical literacy at an all-time low, and a disconnect between biblical belief and faithful action, the Institute for Faith & Culture is uniquely positioned to bring the hope of the Gospel and the mind of Christ to the chaos and confusion of an upside down world.
In an era that is in many ways adamantly opposed to the gospel, the Institute for Faith and Culture proclaims that Christ is King, that the gospel is the good news that affects every sector of society and sphere of culture, and that the triumph of secularism is not inevitable—in fact, secularism will assuredly see its eventual demise.
“We want to restore Christian influence in our society for the sake of the world. Our desire is to equip Christians to shape culture in business, government, education, arts, media, entertainment, and the social sector. This is why the Institute for Faith and Culture exists.”
