On Wednesday, August 28th, we will view a powerful documentary during our Prayer Meeting. The 1916 Project is a documentary that exposes the hidden history of the secular moral revolution, and the architects of our current culture of death. Invite others to join you for this special Prayer Meeting as we continue to stand for life as a church family.
‼️Important Message for Parents Of Teenagers‼️
Anthem Youth (grades 7-12) will meet in the main auditorium with our church to watch the 1916 documentary by Seth Gruber. The documentary addresses the issues on sexual identity and abortion and cuts no corners in its pursuit to bring the things of darkness into the light with Godly conviction, maturity, and boldness.
The terminology used in this documentary regarding sexuality, gender, and the behavior and ideals of the people who established Planned Parenthood is very straightforward and blunt, but used in a scientific, historical, and Biblical context. There is an honest display and discussion of the harsh realities happening in the world today.
Parents... We wanted you to be aware of the nature of the film so you make the appropriate decision regarding their teenager’s attendance. It is a powerful documentary that gives clarity to the evil of Planned Parenthood’s origins and the culture of death that certain groups continue to promote today. We pray this will open the eyes of youth and adults alike, as well as inform us with knowledge we need to fight in these evil days.
From our youth pastors, Conner and Katlin…. "Thank you for trusting us, along with the Anthem team, with your awesome kids. We are so privileged to come alongside God's purposes for you and your family! We hope to see you all tomorrow night!”
About the Documentary:
In 2019 the New York Times released The 1619 Project in an attempt to rewrite history on the beginnings of American slavery, highlighting the systemic racism behind the largest human rights violation in history – until now. From 1900-2000, Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler and Margaret Sanger would spill more innocent blood in the name of eugenics and “progress” than all of previous warlords, tyrants and murderers in human history combined. How did this happen, and how is everything happening today connected?
If we want to understand what ideas and individuals brought us third-trimester abortions, infanticide, euthanasia, pornographic “sex-ed,” critical race theory, transgenderism, trans-ing children, drag queen story hour to children, arresting pro-life sidewalk counselors, and labeling parents who speak at school board meetings as “domestic terrorists,” we have to go back to 1916, when Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger opened up her first illegal birth control clinic in the Brownsville section of New York, an area heavily populated by those she deemed “unfit” to reproduce.
Seth Gruber and The White Rose Resistance are launching The 1916 Project – a groundbreaking documentary to pull back the curtain and expose the hidden history of the secular moral revolution, while equipping the church to understand the times, resist evil, and rebuild a culture of life.

"For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago." -Ephesians 2:10
About our Speaker: Angela Paxton was elected to the Texas Senate in November of 2018 and represents fast-growing Senate District 8, a district that is home to professional sports headquarters, dozens of Fortune 1000 companies, countless entrepreneurs and small businesses, and top-rated public schools. A secondary math teacher and school counselor for more than 20 years, she is the first educator elected to the Texas Senate in over two decades. Senator Paxton describes her job in three words: Listen. Learn. Lead.
Senator Paxton is an adopted child and the first person in her family to graduate from college. She earned an undergraduate degree in Mathematical Science from Baylor University and a Master of Science in Education from the University of Houston-Clear Lake.
Senator Paxton leverages her expertise as an educator, interest in technology, experience as a small business owner, and deep roots in Senate District 8 to advocate for her constituents and lead on policy that elevates educational and economic opportunity and human dignity.
Senator Paxton currently serves as the Vice Chair of the State Affairs Committee and as a member of the Senate committees for Finance, Education, Local Government, and Nominations. She is also the Chair of the Senate Republican Caucus, where she works with the other Republican Senators to advance our conservative priorities.

The Grace Family Conference is FREE and designed to strengthen and develop spiritually healthy families and individuals. Our passion is to assist families in learning Biblical principles and practical applications, in order to help their family grow in faith and equip future generations to follow Jesus.
This conference will help develop Christian families and empower them through the Word of God, so they may achieve the purposes of God. True Biblical hope and the empowering promises of God are the building blocks that enable lasting change in our families.
We are creating a legacy and celebrating the family in the body of Christ! Meet families of all ages as you share similar experiences or hear a new perspective. Engage in meaningful and fun conversations and share a meal with other families as you connect at the family dinner and create a strong community of like-minded Christian families.
Kids and PreTeens, birth - 6th grade, will have a great time in Grace Kids! Inflatables, games, and impactful times of spiritual development as they are equipped and taught how to pray and know that their identity is in Christ.
Students, 7th - 12th grade, will attend Anthem Youth. They will discover the enemies common lies for teens and how to conquer them. This will be a time to connect in small groups, powerful services, worship, games, and fellowship.
Young Adults, ages 18 - 30, will have a dedicated breakout time to connect and learning to lead this day by making the most of "right now".
Begin praying and asking God what unchurched or unsaved person and/or family you should invite to experience this conference with you.
In addition to the conference on Friday evening, we are asking families to make this weekend a selah moment, a family sabbath weekend. A time where you are intentional about setting aside everything else in life and dedicating this one weekend to your family development. How can you do this?
We want to help make this a great family weekend, so we will be passing out a Grace Family Bag at the end of the conference to each family. It will contain game ideas, devotionals, craft ideas and projects, ways to spend time together as a family, table talk questions for meal times, and other ways to continue, or begin learning, how to connect as a family and continue to grow together spiritually . There will also be door prizes throughout the conference with resources and fun family items!
Now more than ever, families need Biblical truth as the foundation of their homes. Join with us at the Grace Family Conference in raising up spiritually healthy families!
Family Dinner will be from 5:30 - 6:30pm. We will be serving Chicken Alfredo, mac-n-cheese, chips, dessert, and a drink.
The Family Merch Table will be open during the conference to purchase resources, t-shirts, kids items, Bibles, and more!
