Larry Burkett accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior in 1972 – an event that had a profound effect, not only on the course of his own life, but also on the lives of countless individuals touched by the work of Crown Financial Ministries.

The Biden administration is wreaking havoc on Title IX. Title IX was passed in 1972 to protect equal opportunities for women, not harm them. Now, the administration has issued a radical change that redefines “sex” in federal law to include “gender identity.” This means that “sex,” under federal law, would be based on how someone identifies, not biological reality. These changes gut equal opportunities for women, erode student privacy, and threaten women’s sports and safety. The Biden administration claims that this radical change won’t affect women’s opportunities. But the government can’t ...

At ADF, we believe that all Americans are free to peacefully express their point of view, and that includes humor and sarcasm. Further, we believe that our freedoms don’t ...

Persecution of Christians and other minority religion adherents is on the rise worldwide. Over 365 million Christians live in places where persecution is a daily challenge. In some countries, blasphemy laws still carry a death sentence. Homeschool parents are targeted by governments who threaten to take their children away because of their faith. Christians are even arrested for silently praying or tweeting a Bible verse. But many Americans aren’t aware of the threat to religious freedom and the extent to which it is under attack in Western countries like the U.K. and Brazil. That’s why we’ve ...

When the government discriminates against foster/adoptive parents based on their religious beliefs, children are harmed. These kids need a forever home—not political ideology. Christians and the church have been key to providing resources and open arms to vulnerable children for hundreds of years.
