Thinking and Providing Biblical and Grace-Centered Theological Resources for the Church
 
 
The inward area is the first place of loss of true Christian life, of true spirituality, and the outward sinful act is the result. Francis Schaeffer
 

January 30, 2012 is Francis A. Schaeffer's '100th' centennial of life celebration (1912-1984)!

Those of us who had the pleasure to know him or work in his legacy cannot fathom the thoughts or write down the words of the impact Francis Schaeffer has had. For us, expect for our Lord and Savior, no one has had a deeper, more profound, and lasting impression. Perhaps, no one, has had 'deeper' life ministry impact in character, in thought or in 'being' on Conservative and Reformed Evangelicalism. God's Word impacted his words and his wisdom reflected God precepts to his writings that we have to keep us honed and challenged. Those of us here at FSICLD, being researchers for his ideas and practicum.... All we can say is wow and thank-you! Thank-you to our Lord for giving us such a man to help challenge and hone us. Thank-you for giving us such a great mind that we can set as an example, a character that we can model, a legacy that we can follow and an impact that we can spread.

Here are some good overviews of his impact:

Continuing the Legacy and Influence of Francis Schaeffer with New Research and Findings
 
 
Under Schaeffer's guidance and vision, ITW (Into Thy Word) and FASICLD were started in Carmel California as a "church guild," think-tank and Bible literacy project. This endeavor came into fruition the late 70's to strategize how to reach and train pastors and church leaders to focus on Christ centered principles.
 

It is our VISION and call, and commitment to point the church back onto the path of making disciples. It is our passion and directive to lead Christians away from our false perceptions and into His Way.

Articles and pictures from our founder and others contributing to his philosophy and call to action. Because of God's call and Schaeffer's influence, we desire to see a church committed to His purpose and poured out to His ways. Then we will see revival through real prayer and devotion to His Lordship.
 
 
 
We provide research and resources for discipleship and leadership training. We bring to pastors, church leaders, church planters, seminaries, and Bible schools biblical curriculums, research, encouragement to be a "paraclete" which means to come along side to equip those who do.
 
 
 
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (John 14:26-15:26). The Triune God has created humanity in His own image and has called us to manifest and reflect personal holiness through trust and obedience to His Word and commandments.
 
 
 
Through His Word and the Holy Spirit, we strive to bring the gift of a life that is fully surrendered to God. We approach all of our work and life under God's control and leadership.
