With the summer behind us, we are gearing up for a busy fall with three more Pastors’ Breakfasts,  it would be nice to think we can take some time to catch our breath.  But that is impossible, seeing that the...

U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) recently introduced H.R. 128, also known as the Defund Planned Parenthood Act of 2023, to the U.S. House of Representatives. This proposal would restrict the federal funds Planned Parenthood receives for abortion (except in cases of rape or incest or danger to the woman’s life) for one year to redirect $235 million toward community health centers. Currently, 40 representatives have cosponsored the bill.

We are always looking for ways to keep our finger on the pulse of the culture, and of course, that includes our own readers and subscribers. As you probably know, George Barna has been warning Christians in the United States that our worldview has been corrupted by our culture and environment.

On this first day of 2023, I come to you with an overwhelming heart of appreciation, and it is from all of us at IFI… We are blessed.

Dear Friends, We’re almost there! Many of you have given sacrificially, and through December 31st these donations will be doubled up to $260,000 through the generosity of amazing supporters who agree with the work being done at Illinois Family Institute...

I am excited to share some good news with you about the $260,000 matching challenge we wrote about two weeks ago: The response to this challenge has been slower than in years past, but we are making progress toward meeting the goal before we hit midnight on Saturday evening.

Looking back on 2022, I am deeply humbled by the amazing support that has helped us make progress toward our goals. We also treasure the encouragement you give us regularly. This year has passed quickly, and it is hard to believe that we have a few days left on 2022's calendar.

Children are growing up in an America where adults celebrate the dismemberment of children in their mothers’ wombs.

They are growing up where cross-dressing adult men twerk in children’s departments of public libraries, where adults tell children that some women have penises, where adults allow cross-dressing men into locker rooms with young girls and women, where teachers assign pornographic books to minors, and where surgeons profit from cutting off the breasts off 13-year-old girls.

We are extremely pleased to announce the 2022 end-of-year matching challenge! In an effort to help us raise $260,000 by the end of this month, several generous benefactors have offered to match donations to IFI up to $130,000! So between now and the end of the year, you can double the impact of your giving!

Everyone knows that Christmastime is the season of giving. God gave the gift of His only Son. The Wise Men brought gifts to His glory. And we still celebrate the season by giving gifts to others.

Please don’t let the troubling news of voter fraud lull you into inactivity in this election. Your vote, our votes, absolutely matter! This is especially true in an election cycle in which we are expecting a pendulum swing and have...

The November 8th election is less than six weeks away, and early voting will soon get underway. Please do not wait to get and distribute the IFI Voter Guide to your family, friends and at church.

We will be printing a limited number of the 2022 General Election Voter Guides. While we will make it available on our website to download, it is wise to order bulk quantities of the printed version now to share with your friends, neighbors, family and at church (with your pastor's permission).

Illinois Family Institute has been fighting for traditional family values for more than 30 years now. We have never been afraid to stand up and speak out in the public square for the Judeo-Christian values upon which our country was...
