America’s founders believed that the freedom to live out our faith was so important that they enshrined it in the First Amendment to the Constitution. But in recent decades, that Amendment has been so twisted in the courts that it is now often used as a justification for depriving people of their religious freedom.
Our culture increasingly sees Christianity as a threat and it is working to punish Christians.
Prayer is even on trial at Supreme Court
A high school football coach who decided, on his own, to pray a brief, silent prayer on the field after each game was fired by his school, claiming the prayer was a violation of the Constitution.
This Monday, Coach Joe Kennedy’s case is scheduled to be heard in the United States Supreme Court. The outcome will impact all of us. I urge you to pray that this God-fearing coach will be vindicated and that our First Amendment religious freedom will be preserved.
Will you be a voice for Christ in our culture? If so, speak up when people of faith are challenged by our increasingly godless society.
