Who We Are

Our History

The Family Action Council of Tennessee (FACT) was formed in 2006 out of a concern for the wellbeing of families in Tennessee and a need to advocate for their future with conservative Christian public policy.

David Fowler, a former Tennessee legislator, was its first president who accomplished significant policy victories that protect marriage, family, life, and liberty in our state. In 2026, Dr. Kent DelHousaye, an accomplished pastor and political theologian, became the second president of FACT. 

Now in its 20th year, FACT is well positioned to build on its successful legacy to safeguard faith, family, and freedom in the public square and secure a Tennessee where marriage is respected, family is valued, life is cherished, and liberty is protected.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to safeguard God’s design for faith, family, and freedom in the public square.

OUR VISION

Our vision is a secure Tennessee where biblical marriage is respected, the traditional family is valued, vulnerable life is cherished, and religious liberty is protected.

OUR STRATEGIES

  • Education - We provide training and resources to constituents and legislators via various mediums and venues.
  • Advocacy - We lobby state and local officials for biblical policies that support marriage, family, life, and liberty.
  • Accountability - We distribute voter materials and send action alerts about elections, candidates, and initiatives.

Our Beliefs

  • We believe the Bible to be the inspired, only infallible, authoritative Word of God;
  • We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;
  • We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory;
  • We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful humanity, regeneration by the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ is absolutely essential;
  • We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life;
  • We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, they who are saved unto the resurrection of life and they who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation;
  • We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
