Mission
Why we exist
American Resource Foundation ("ARF") equips Christian individuals, families, churches, and local leaders to live faithfully in public life by strengthening households, forming courageous leaders, and advancing practical resources rooted in biblical principles for human flourishing.
Vision
What we aspire to build
We envision an America renewed by faithful Christians who are organized in their communities, resilient in their households, courageous in public life, and committed to laws and institutions that honor God’s design for human flourishing.
Core Work
Where we work
ARF forms, equips, and organizes local Christian communities in five primary areas:
01. Personal civic responsibility,
02. Family strength and resilience,
03. Marriage covenant,
04. Economic stewardship, and
05. Public policy education.
Non-Profit
Under God.
Rooted in Faith in Jesus.
For ALL Americans.
ARF is nonpartisan, but not morally neutral.
We do not exist to serve a political party, faction, candidate, or movement. We exist to equip Christians to understand and apply biblical principles taught by God through the Bible in family life, civic life, economic life, and public leadership.
We also recognize that the word “American” has often been used in politically motivated ways - to suggest one party, class, race, region, or ideology represents the “real America.”
But the word “American” should not belong to any one political party. It should not be used to separate “real Americans” from everyone else. ARF uses the term to speak of the whole nation and the shared civic life we all inhabit. Our mission is rooted in Christian conviction, but our concern is for the good of ALL Americans: every family, neighbor, community, and citizen living in the geographic borders of this country.
We believe biblical principles do not lead Christians to retreat from public life, but to a life in service of their neighbors, strengthening families, defending what is good, and working toward a society ordered toward human flourishing under God, for God.
