Ark Encounter
“He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken.” – Psalm 62:2
We are living in a time of profound moral turbulence. Radical gender ideology is rampant, marriage has been redefined, and the line between men and women has been erased. What was good is now called evil, and what was evil is now called good (Isaiah 5:20).
Sadly, many churches have bought into these false ideas about sexuality and have upended God’s design. They reject the historical account of the first man and woman given in Genesis because they embrace evolutionary ideas about the past instead. Every new idea sways the secular world and the compromised church because they are at war with God’s Word.
Join us for Anchored: Pursuing Biblical Sexuality in a Turbulent World, where you’ll find answers to many questions: Why are Side A and Side B “Christianity” so dangerous? Is there a link between church compromise on sexuality and secular organizations with big money? How can we use media to equip Christians to deal with issues of sexuality? Are people born gay? Why is marriage defined as only between a man and a woman? How can we help our children navigate the minefield of sexuality and embrace God’s good design for them? Should women prioritize their marriage while shepherding their children? Is the fight for LGBTQ rights a civil rights issue? Is sexuality holy? Can we effectively fight for our rights as women in a gender-confused world?
When we are anchored in the firm foundation found in Genesis, we can know that God’s design for sexuality is good. He created man and woman in his image and established marriage to be between one man and one woman. Men and women have equal value and different roles. Now more than ever, Christians must speak this truth in love, resist deception, and shine as lights in the darkness while proclaiming God’s unchanging design for sexuality, marriage, and identity with boldness and grace.
Anchored is more than a conference. It’s a powerful gathering featuring some of today’s most influential voices on biblical sexuality and cultural engagement. And it’s a call to action—to be unshaken in faith, unwavering in truth, and unafraid in love. We invite you to come be equipped, be emboldened, and be anchored.
