LEADERSHIP.

…@KimReynoldsIA is showcasing tonight why she is the best Governor in Iowa’s history and one of the best Governors, if not the best, in the country. If you’re watching, this is a mic-drop of accomplished leadership. Those who want to replace her, need to take notes.

Our hearts are broken for the families of the brave Iowa National Guard soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice in Syria, defending freedom against evil. These heroes laid down their lives serving our nation, and we are eternally grateful. Join us in fervent prayer for their loved ones, the wounded, and all who serve. May God comfort them with His peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7).  #PrayForOurTroops #IowaStrong #ThankYouForYourService"

Gratitude is powerful. Gratitude fuels renewal It turns hearts toward God, strengthens families, and prepares a nation for renewal. Today we give thanks—and we commit to living like it. Psalm 100:4 – “Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! #GiveThanksAlways #GratitudeChangesEverything

The Authority of Scripture The Bible is not outdated. It is not optional. It is not one voice among many. It is the living Word of God—the standard for truth in every generation. When leaders drift from Scripture, nations lose their way. But when God’s Word guides our homes, churches, and civic life, families flourish and freedom takes root. Open the Word. Stand on it. Build your life upon it. #AuthorityOfScripture #BuildOnTheRock

Hope is Not Lost Not every season is easy, and this one isn’t. But discouragement isn’t our inheritance—hope is. God has carried His people through greater trials than these. He still reigns. He still redeems. He still restores. Hold fast. God is not finished with this generation. #FaithOverFear

Laws don’t just regulate—they teach. They signal what a nation values and what it protects. When policy honors God’s design for life, marriage, and family, communities thrive not by accident, but by blessing. Let’s keep working for a government that reflects eternal truth, not cultural trends. #biblicalworldview

Marriage Still Matters in 2025 New Barna research just released: Marriage in America is changing fast. Only 46% of U.S. adults are currently married (down from 66% in 1950). Divorce remains steady at 18%. Gen Z overwhelmingly believes in marriage (81%!), but they’re waiting longer and many see cohabitation as the “smart” first step. Here’s the hope: Christians are remarrying at higher rates (58%) and staying committed longer — proof that faith makes a real difference in broken places. Friends, this is our moment. Our kids are watching. Our churches are needed. We can lead the way in discipling the next generation toward strong, covenant marriages — not just weddings, but lifelong, Christ-centered homes. Let’s not wring our hands over the trends — let’s get to work strengthening families right where we are. Read the full Barna report here: barna.com/trends/marriag… Who’s with us?

The Church was never meant to watch history—but to shape it. Silence is not compassion. Truth spoken in love is. When the Church leads with courage and humility, communities are healed and the nation is strengthened. Let’s be a people who pray deeply, love boldly, and stand firmly on the Word of God.

The Church: God’s Plan for Strong Families – Acts 2:44-45 Good news! The longest government shutdown is over. But the real celebration? Churches already living the Gospel! While D.C. debates dollars, local churches are feeding bodies and souls. From pantries to prayer, church congregations are God’s love in action—feeding the hungry, strengthening marriages, welcoming the fatherless. Every act of service is a victory song! Keep shining, Church! Strong families start with faithful local bodies. #church #thefamilyleader

When truth becomes “whatever feels right,” families suffer and culture fractures. God’s Word isn’t uncertain, and neither should we be. Clarity is love. Conviction is compassion. Truth sets people free. #biblicaltruth

Big change starts with quiet faithfulness. Most culture-shaping moments don’t happen on stages or platforms; they happen at dinner tables, in prayer circles, in classrooms, and in everyday conversations. If we want a nation grounded in truth, we start by building homes grounded in Christ. Faithfulness in small things shapes generations.

The laws we pass shape the culture our children inherit. They reflect what we value, what we protect, and what we believe about truth. When leaders govern with wisdom and integrity, families thrive. When they don’t, freedom fades. That’s why we engage—not for power, but for principle. Let’s keep working to build a government that honors God and serves people well.

A recent Economist/YouGov survey shows support for same-sex marriage dropping to 54%. It’s a reminder that cultural momentum can change, but God’s design for marriage has never shifted. As culture wrestles with identity, family, and truth, Scripture stands firm: Marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman for the good of children, families, and society. This isn’t about winning arguments. It’s about loving people enough to point to what God calls good because strong marriages build strong homes, and strong homes build strong nations. #thefamilyleader

It means standing firm when the pressure rises. Choosing conviction over convenience. And leading with integrity even when it’s unpopular. At The FAMiLY Leader, we believe leadership rooted in God’s truth has the power to strengthen families and transform communities. Learn more: thefamilyleader.com

When the headlines scream chaos and the unknown presses in, remember: perfect love casts out fear. God hasn’t surrendered the pen—He’s still writing the story. “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” — John 14:27 (NIV) So stand tall. Hold the line for marriage, life, and religious freedom. Lead with faith that outlasts fear—because the One who calms storms still walks on water. #FaithOverFear #thefamilyleader

Real unity begins when truth and grace work together. That’s what transforms families, churches, and communities from the inside out. At The FAMiLY Leader, we’re helping leaders model conviction with compassion—because a nation can’t heal without both. Learn more: thefamilyleader.com

God Over Government Let’s stay faithful to His calling, even when culture moves the goalposts. Our hope isn’t in power—it’s in purpose. Join us at The Family Leader to stand firm in faith! #FamilyLeader #BiblicalValues
