Now, with its recent passage in the House, the chances of the “Equality Act” being signed into law are higher than ever before. The “Equality Act” would add “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” as protected classes to many existing federal nondiscrimination laws. And though “nondiscrimination” sounds good in theory, that is not what this bill is truly about. The “Equality Act” is a deliberate and dangerous attempt to force people of faith to abandon their sincerely held beliefs ...

Novel. Unprecedented. Staggering. These words have all been used to describe a federal appeals court decision that said Colorado officials can force artist Lorie Smith to create custom designs and promote messages that violate her beliefs. Lorie left the corporate design world to start her own design studio, 303 Creative, in 2012 so she could promote causes consistent with her beliefs and close to her heart, such as supporting children with disabilities, the beauty of marriage, overseas missions, animal shelters, and veterans. She was excited to expand her portfolio to create websites that ...

Liam Morrison couldn’t have imagined that he would be spending some of his middle school years in a courtroom helping to protect free speech for other students. But for Liam, the truth is worth it. At 12, he’s shown more courage than some adults. Now, he has a message of thanks to all the Ministry Friends who have helped support his case for freedom. Liam is a student at Nichols Middle School in Massachusetts. During his time there, he’s watched his school host celebrations of “Pride Week” and even encourage students to participate. But Liam believes the truth that gender is not based on our ...

… ruling that punished Jack for not designing a custom cake celebrating a gender transition, requested by an activist …

The cruelty against Jack Phillips continues. Will you pray for him? You know his story: Jack is the cake artist from Colorado who serves all people but could not—and cannot—create a custom cake that expresses a message he does not believe.

And because our nation’s Constitution protects free speech, he doesn’t have to. After ten years, and despite two victories, he’s still being targeted by activists who want to ...
