SCO Partnership with Before It Begins

Claim Your Free Gift from Before It Begins

What a pleasure it was to be with you at your District Assembly. Together, we can create a culture of holiness and biblical sexuality in your church and community in the midst of the threats of today’s pornography and LGBTQ ideology. I’m pleased to report that our program launch was a success. Many of you have already responded, some have already joined and taken advantage of our free Pastor Protection Programs, and others are calling about how they can get involved. If you haven’t yet already, check out our partnership landing page to learn more: https://sconaz.org/before-it-begins/

As the next step for those who have yet to respond, I encourage you to take advantage of the free gifts available to you as a result of our partnership. To access these free gifts, simply call or email us. Our hope is that these free resources and trainings will help strengthen church leaders and families.

If you have questions, want to learn more, or simply want to begin a conversation about how Before It Begins can serve you and your church, we would love to connect with you. Everything begins with a simple phone call or email.

We are genuinely excited about this new partnership and the opportunity to come alongside you in a greater way, and we look forward to connecting with many of you personally in the weeks ahead.
