About Us

Since 1991 Africa Christian Action has been mobilising and equipping Christians to make a positive difference in society, working for Reformation and praying for Revival.

• ACA organised the first anti-pornography and pro-life demonstrations in South Africa in 1991.
  
• ACA published the first South African booklet against pornography - Finding Freedom from the Pornography Plague (over 10 000 copies of 2 editions sold out). First published in 1991. Taryn Hodgson has now expanded, updated and completed this book, which exposes how the pornography plague affects you and equips you, your family and community to fight back. Read more about Porndemic - How the Pornography Plague Affects You and What You Can Do About It.
• ACA initiated the first nationwide campaign against pornography in South Africa (which succeeded in persuading over 9 000 stores to no longer stock pornography).
• In 1995, ACA produced the first pro-life book to be published in SA:  Fight for Life - a Pro-life Handbook for Southern Africa (1995).
  
• Since 1997, ACA has initiated and co-ordinated Sanctity Life Sunday, the National Day of Repentance and the Parliamentary Imprecatory Prayer Proclamation against abortion.
• In 1999, ACA published the most comprehensive Christian Action Handbook for Southern Africa: Make a Difference!
• In 2001 ACA published The Pink Agenda: Sexual Revolution in South Africa and the Ruin of the Family which exposed radical the homosexual agenda for South Africa. The Pink Agenda was the first non-pornography book to be censored in the new South Africa. The restriction was lifted by the Appeals Board after a lengthy battle with the Film and Publications Board.
• ACA has opposed homosexual 'marriages' and other attacks on the family with prayer vigils, placard protests, marches, and through presentations at Parliament.
• ACA has conducted Biblical Wordlview Seminars and promoted Christian schools and Home Schooling throughout Southern Africa.

Operation Nehemiah

"You are the salt of the earth.  But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?  It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled by men.  You are the light of the world... in the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in Heaven." Matthew 5:13-16

Christian Action Network is an umbrella organization - consisting of 100 member organizations - which seek to work for Reformation and Revival. CAN does this through providing information and by mobilizing Christians throughout Africa.

As an umbrella organization we provide a larger voice in the public arena enabling us to speak to politicians and the media more effectively on the issues of the day. CAN regularly publishes news releases on social and moral issues and organizes submissions and presentations before political and parliamentary groups.

We are also committed to working and praying for Reformation and Revival in Africa and host Biblical Worldview Seminars, Reformation and Revival Seminars, and God and Government Seminars.

CAN publishes the Christian Action magazine quarterly.

Some of the books that CAN has published include South Africa: Renaissance or Reformation?, Reforming Our Families, The Power of Prayer Handbook and The Biblical Worldview Manual. For more books and audio-visual resources available from Christian Liberty Books, click here
