Culture produces a way of thinking and therefore living.
Throughout Scripture, the Bible tracks two cities and the respective cultures they produce: Babylon and Zion (aka New Jerusalem). Every single one of us is owned by one of those city’s culture.

It was late October when AFA released In His Image: Delighting in God’s Plan for Gender and Sexuality, our original, feature-length documentary from American Family Studios. Over these few weeks since its release, we are hearing from thousands who are finding the hope of the gospel presented in In His Image. More than 110,000 have registered to watch the movie with over 334,000 plays and 13,000 have financially partnered with AFA and will receive the 2-Disc DVD set, now being shipped over all 50 states and even to some in countries outside of the U.S. Lives are being transformed, and families who are desperate for truth are finding real hope.

And, experts say, the increases in case numbers are highly inaccurate.
