Riley understands first hand the harm that comes when lies are believed. Now more than ever, Christians must know and stand for the truth.

We are honored to welcome Riley Gaines to our fall banquet. With steadfast faith, she has courageously defended women’s sports and biblical truth in the face of intense pressure. Her example inspires hope for this generation and strength for our faith, families, and nation.

The Woke Left tried to silence, intimidate, and threaten her—but Riley Gaines stood firm in her faith and refused to compromise the truth. Don’t miss this courageous young woman at IFI’s Fall Banquet—bring your family & friends, and sponsor a table today!

Since May, thousands of Illinoisans—including many of our state lawmakers—have driven past IFI’s Springfield billboard declaring a timeless truth: “The Rainbow Belongs to God.” And during the State Fair, countless families saw it as well. Your support makes this work possible!

Biblical truth is desperately needed in the public square—now more than ever. Imagine the impact if more Christians stood with IFI in the battle for truth, life, and freedom. Will you stand with us as we strive to overcome evil with good?

This week, we honor the birth of our great nation—a land where self-government, individual liberty, and God-given rights have long been cherished. We thank the Lord for the blessing of living in a country founded on the principles of freedom and personal responsibility. As fireworks light the sky, parades march through our streets, and families gather for backyard cookouts, we celebrate the stars and stripes and the enduring values that have made America a beacon of hope around the world.

Riley Gaines, a 12-time NCAA All-American and former University of Kentucky swimmer, has become a powerful national voice of truth. This strong Christian woman now leads the charge in defending women's single-sex spaces and championing fairness and equality. Gaines actively speaks out against the inclusion of biological males in women's sports, a commitment she has demonstrated through extensive lobbying and testimony before state legislatures, the U.S. Senate, and the U.S. House to secure common sense legislation.

Easter Sunday is the culmination of Holy Week. We would do well to take time to reflect on who we are and where we stand in our faith. Our patience and devotion have been challenged many times over the last few years, but also rewarded. Now would be a good time to look back on the path we have taken and gear up for the next steps, as people of faith and as Americans. 

Christian conservatives could have a greater influence on our culture and the political process if only more of us were willing to engage in prayer and activism. Scripture exhorts us to do both: Pray for our leaders (1 Timothy 2:1-7), and live out our faith (James 1:22). If every conservative Christian did this, our state and nation would not be submerged in the cesspool in which we currently find ourselves.
