The Ruth Institute is a global interfaith coalition equipping Christians to defend the family and build a civilization of love.
Founded by world-renowned author, speaker and academic Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, the Ruth Institute provides decades of research to support individuals and families harmed by divorce, the hook-up culture, and other forms of family breakdown.
The Ruth Institute has a Dream that all children be welcomed into life in a loving home with their own mother and father, married to each other.
We believe that:
- All people have the right to know their cultural heritage and genetic identity.
- Every child has a right to a relationship with his or her natural mother and father except for an unavoidable tragedy.
We reject the idea that a child is a problem to solve if you don’t want one and an object to purchase if you do want one.
We uphold the ancient Christian teachings about marriage, family, and human sexuality. These teachings are today sometimes regarded as exclusively “Catholic.” But in fact, Judaism, and most Christian groups, historically taught many of the same things. We work with individuals and groups, religious or otherwise, who share our views, in whole or in part, regardless of their positions on other issues.
The Sexual Revolution has been going on for years and wreaked havoc, destruction, and misery along the way. The Ruth Institute has your back to give you the sound thinking, solid research, and the stories of the survivors to equip you to defend the family!
