As the last hours of 2014 tick away, I want to encourage you not to look forward to just this upcoming year but to the many more that will follow. Then ask yourself what kind of legacy you want to leave for the next generation.

As a young person who has recently exited the teen years, I can attest that my generation is utterly confused about the most basic truths about family, marriage, sexuality, health, and culture. This confusion is created at least in part by our government leaders.

What kids are being taught in the classroom; what they think about human life, sexuality, and marriage; and what they see as intolerant or hateful are influenced by the decisions government leaders make. When the leaders of our state and nation use their positions to promote immorality, young people suffer the consequences.

Yet these officials are representing us, and thus we are responsible for their actions. We have a duty to the next generation for the decisions made today.

The Illinois Family Institute is here not only to alert you to what is going on in the Capitol and around the state but also to speak biblical truth to policy makers, culture makers and even religious leaders. IFI perseveres in encouraging these representatives to stand for truth and to oppose the expansion of the Left’s power and influence.

There is no better time than now to give. We have almost met our $40,000 matching grant, but we still have a way to go to meet our goal by midnight tonight.

Please consider supporting IFI so that we can have a brighter future to pass onto the next generation.
