How do we protect our children from vile predators bent on mutilating their bodies and polluting their minds, and then equip them to live pure lives? Former sex-education expert Audrey Werner has thought about these questions and studied the history and intent behind today’s “comprehensive” sex education and how we can return to biblical principles and a life of purity.
Through her Christian ministry The Matthew XVIII Group and political activism, Werner and a growing number of truth-seeking parents refuse to stay quiet on the harms of sex education. For decades, she has fearlessly exposed the origins of the Sexual Revolution and its impact on the Church and the traditional nuclear family. Her message awakens parents and lawmakers to the harms of the sexual “science” taught in schools both here and abroad. Finally, she says, people are protesting the materials being used to disrupt children’s development and destroy their innocence.
The founder and president of The Matthew XVIII Group, Werner is also dean of life issues at Master’s International University of Divinity and the author of 10 Tips on How NOT to Talk to Your Kids About Sex. A Christian mom, wife, and grandma, she speaks to Christian leaders, youth, and legislators, as well as to lawmakers in her home state of Texas and the Parliament in Uganda.
As a former sex educator and school nurse, Werner speaks authoritatively about the sex-education industry. In the late 1990s, she was employed at a sexually transmitted diseases clinic in Michigan, where she tested and treated patients for STDs and HIV.
In a video interview with The New American, she admitted how early on she was convinced sex education was a good thing because trusted “experts” proclaimed that if kids knew more about sex, there would be less pregnancy and fewer sexually transmitted diseases. But then when her son was entering kindergarten at a Lutheran school where a “Learning About Sex” series was being taught, she started to wonder if the earlier kids were taught about sex, the earlier they would start to be sexually active.
“I was trained up, I was modest. But I was never encouraged to teach abstinence,” said Werner of her early training. “I was told children are sexual from birth and that we needed to go in there and make sure that we were not uncomfortable when we were talking to kids about the topic [of sex].”
But were the children comfortable discussing adult topics such as the names for genitals, which they are instructed to recite out loud in class, or the details of how sexual intercourse is performed? Kids today are taught it is perfectly normal for a child to have sex with an adult, informed Werner.
After a brief time on the job, Werner noticed that STD and pregnancy rates, as well as date rape and child sex abuse, were not falling but increasing, in fact exploding! Thus began her decades-long journey of researching the background of sexual “science” that since the 1960s has infiltrated not only education, but every major institution in America, from the medical field to the arts to the law.
Children Are Moldable and Easily Influenced
“Before, sex ed was exposing children to naked pictures of adults, mostly in cartoon character, but now it’s full-blown, hardcore pornography in the literature for the students,” exclaimed Werner during our interview.
Since the birth of sex education curricula in 1964, the information foisted on children has become increasingly traumatizing. Even Christian schools are not rejecting the poisonous information taught to minors.
But what is comprehensive sex ed? Comprehensive sex ed (CSE) has been touted as a “rights-based approach to comprehensive sexuality education [that] seeks to equip young people with the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values they need to determine and enjoy their sexuality — physically and emotionally, individually and in relationships,” according to the left-wing Guttmacher Institute.
Instructing on issues related to the “physical, biological, emotional, and social aspects of sexuality,” today’s sex ed teaches children as young as four years old that adult/child sex happens and is appropriate, and that homosexuality and transgenderism are positive values and should be respected as normal aspects of sexual health.
Yet children are moldable and easily influenced, and through this curriculum, schools are replacing parents in the job of discipling their children — and it’s not in Judeo-Christian principles.
In the new documentary The Mind Polluters, produced by married filmmakers Mark and Amber Archer and now banned from Vimeo, Amazon, and YouTube, Werner joins a celebrated cast of educators, parents, and former military members to reveal the parallels between sexual predators and sex education, which she claims was created to break down children’s modesty. (See our review of The Mind Polluters in our September 26, 2022 issue.)
“Children have a natural aversion to hearing anything sexual,” said Werner, who knows firsthand the reaction of children presented with sexual content. “Children are trying to giggle. They are not giving you eye contact; they’re looking away,” she explained.
Told by her supervisors to be “very firm” with children, Werner said the goal was to be sure they took the information seriously. “And that’s what a sexual predator does,” she said.
How We Got Here
Not surprisingly, the origins of sex education and its impact on the moral decline of America over the past 100 years are not widely known. Yet none have been spared from the “global attack on children,” Werner says. “I don’t care if you are in medicine, education, the law, the military, or the ministry, you have been profoundly affected by Kinsey’s ‘science’ and the Sexual Revolution.”
Werner’s reference is to the fraudulent sexual science of sexologist and child predator Alfred Kinsey (1894-1956), who conducted unthinkable experiments in the 1940s on the most vulnerable to reach the conclusion that children are sexual from birth and that they deserve and have the right to be sexually active and to seek sexual pleasure.
His ideas, long accepted in the halls of academia, now are mainstream in our present culture. Today, objections to these beliefs are considered oppression of children.
“If we can get a child sexual from birth, if we can sexualize the child early on, we know they will walk away from Christ if they’ve been raised in a Christian home. And we know the likelihood of them having a successful heterosexual married life goes down dramatically,” remarked Werner, who feels that Kinsey’s eccentric assertions are a large part of the great effort to change America through the hyper-sexualization of children and ultimate breakdown of the traditional family.
Werner paraphrases the late, great Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, who once remarked on this seismic shift in culture. Scalia stated that if Bible-based laws were being replaced subtly by new laws steeped in deceit and immorality and, most importantly, found to be a fraud, instead of coming up with new laws to protect what we’re losing, shouldn’t we go back to the old laws and make them honorable again?
Werner is trying to do just that. In her trainings through her nonprofit Matthew XVIII, she teaches how the Church was one of the first institutions to be indoctrinated in this new field of human sexuality, which is based on the fraudulent “scientific” studies of Kinsey.
She calls for “the remnant” to wake up to the truth of a curriculum diametrically opposed to faith-based values, and to bring awareness and action to stop the implementation of sexual “science” in its tracks in order to save children’s lives.
God Is Moving in Texas
Heeding Werner’s call, parents and patriot groups across the country are responding. It’s happening. And as Werner explained, the remnant is not being found in the nonprofits or churches, but in the government. “There are still good people God has placed there,” she said.
Werner has reached out to Texas state legislators and traveled as far as East Africa, where she unexpectedly ended up speaking before members of Parliament in Uganda at the exact moment when the country was to adopt sex ed in the schools. “I shared this information with them, and as I like to say, a mama with the help of the Almighty God, went up against the UN, Planned Parenthood International, and halted sex ed from going in Ugandan schools.”
If one mom can do that in Uganda, what can ten parents do here?
Diana Richards, a north Texas mom, is among the bold parents in Texas who have “linked arms” to help launch a growing grassroots movement called Texas Education 911, which is committed to the priorities of protecting children and parental rights.
Richards told The New American in a phone interview that people think sex education today is the same as it was 20 years ago. Yet she elaborated that one doesn’t have to be a Yale graduate to know that what they are teaching to minors is harmful and depraved.
“It’s not about abstinence anymore. You can’t tell a child about all the different sex positions and then tell them not to do it. Sex ed should never have been about sexualizing children,” she said.
Richards, an avid volunteer for various organizations, including Werner’s ministry Matthew XVIII, which Richards has supported since 2012, said she’s waited for as long as 13 hours to speak face-to-face with Texas state legislators about graphic materials billed as sex education in the hopes that they will take action legislatively to protect the children.
Richards is hopeful that her community’s concerns will be heard. Texas State Representatives Jared Patterson, Bryan Slaton, and Briscoe Cain, and State Senator Bob Hall are among the few lawmakers voicing their support for issues such as the removal of X-rated materials from school libraries, an end to gender-reassignment surgeries and genital mutilation, and the prohibition of minors from attending drag shows.
Still, Richards believes a great awakening is moving across Texas, and that lawmakers are increasingly influenced by documentaries, including Whose Children Are They? and The Mind Polluters, which shows Christians banding together to convey similar ideas through different perspectives. She notes they are only an “introduction to what is out there. Now we need to go deeper.”
The Mind Polluters — exposing sex education and its effects on America, the sexual revolution, and biblical purity — was shown at the Republican state convention in Texas and prompted delegates in attendance to vote for the protection of children as one of the top priorities in the next legislative session.
“Four out of the eight priorities centered on protections for kids (to stop sexualizing them!) and protections for parental rights,” wrote Werner in an email to The New American.
Werner’s battle to stop the poisoning of children at a very young age, as these experiences are life-changing, is catching fire. Certainly, what a kindergartner learns about sex is not easily unlearned. With the help of parent-activists such as Richards, Werner is rallying others to speak about the harm sex ed can cause to minor children. Together, we must work to rid the schools of curricula meant to destroy irreversibly children’s development.
As Werner exclaims, “I am watching parents rise up all over the place and we are showing this film [The Mind Polluters] despite the fact that it is banned on Amazon and through Vimeo, but we are showing the film, and we are waking people up! It’s time to wake up, get in the game, and trust God!”
