The
Capital A Capital F Capital A
is for people who are
tired of cursing the darkness and
who are ready to light a candle!

Flame

     Founded in 1977 by Donald Wildmon, the AFA stands for the biblical ethic of decency and traditional family values, focusing primarily on the influence of television and other media - including pornography - on our society.

     AFA believes that the entertainment industry and the media has played a major role in the decline of those values in which our country was founded and which keeps a society and its families strong and healthy.


"All that needs to be done for evil to prevail is that good men do nothing!" Edmund Burke


     Not long after AFA was formed, AFA President Don Wildmon saw the need for State Directors and local activists' groups. While the AFA national serves as the conduit for educational and legal resources, the movement depends on dedicated local citizens to fight the front-line battles.


USA Flag


     This decency brigade of AFA supporters is operating in nearly every state in the nation. They are the foot soldiers in the war for faith, family values, and religious freedom.



Our goal is to take back territory that the enemy has stolen.



I Want to Be of Help!

     As the State Director of the AFA of CO, I see this organization utilizing two spiritual gifts —helps and prophecy. The "prophetic" gift will involve calling people to account, calling "sin" sin, exposing the darkness, and speaking the truth in love. The "helps" gift will involve assisting the local church, pastors, concerned Christians, and other like-minded organizations.


Here are some practical ways I can help:

     Red bullet I can come to your community and speak to your church, Sunday School class, civics group, youth group, decency organization, etc.

     Red bullet I can lead, assist, or participate in local workshops and seminars.

     Red bullet I can be a consultant for you as you attempt to continue to address the pornography and decency concerns in your area.

     Red bullet I can pray with you, your pastor, your group, your local needs and network you with like-minded individuals.

Standing In The Gap

     Christians are supposed to be salt in a decaying and dying world system. We are called to expose darkness and speak up for truth. But, I'm afraid that people are already "trampling us underfoot." I have cut out numerous articles from the newspaper on various moral issues - homosexuality, abortion, gambling, violence, media sewage, and so on - and I have found an alarming trend - APATHY !

     The reporters are quick to point out that at many meetings and sessions where "the other side" needed representation or a voice, there was none. In the Gazette Telegraph (9-18-96) concerning "Denver extends health benefits to partners of gay city workers," the Associate Press writer stated: "At prior hearings, little opposition had surfaced to the proposed ordinance, and it passed Monday night without discussion."

     This reminds me of what God said to Ezekiel when their was injustice and immorality happening in the land. The Sovereign Lord said: "I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before Me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none." (Ezekiel 22:30)


"The time has come that Christians must vote for honest men, and take consistent ground in politics." (Charles G. Finney)

WORSHIP MUSIC IN THREE DIMENSIONS - How to Sing Down the Presence and Power of God
This book was written to help churches bring their congregation into the very lap of God. This can be accomplished by adapting a certain musical progression during the time of congregational singing. The author, Rev. Tom Pedigo, calls this model "The Temple Pattern" which involves a simple threefold process of musically moving from the Outer Court (celebration and jubilation) to the Inner Court (reflection and expectation) and into the Holy of Holies (adoration and spiritual communion). A must-read for every pastor, worship leader and serious worshipper. After visiting hundreds of churches, Rev. Pedigo believes this is a blueprint for corporate church revival.
