Dear John,

To paraphrase Charles Dickens, these are the worst of times, and the worst of times…

You might think that’s a dark way to look at life in the United States. But after watching the day’s news, you know that often sadly rings true today.

Frustration, anger, stress. They surround us.

It used to be that Americans could all agree that religious freedom was a public good and a place to find peace. But now even our faith can be met with hostility.

Just ask Coach Joe Kennedy or postal carrier Gerald Groff. They were both forced out of their jobs for expressing their faith.

Without faith, where is the hope we all so desperately need?

Faith and hope are worth fighting for.
That’s why I’m asking for your very best gift today.

Let me assure you, hope is not lost.

What if I told you that you have more religious freedom than you’ve ever had?

You might stare at me in disbelief. But it’s true. You do.

Together, you and I have won faith-changing victories in the fight to protect religious liberty.

You see, thanks to your support, First Liberty scored crucial wins at the Supreme Court.

In the Coach Kennedy and Gerald Groff cases, old precedents that limited expressions of faith have been overturned.

Because you stood with us in the defense of faith, Americans have reclaimed the rights to:

• Pray on the 50-yard line after a high school football game

• Put up a Ten Commandment monument on the town square

• Recite scripture and even pray at city council meetings

But right now, our hard-fought wins for religious liberty are in grave peril.

You see, the enemies of faith understand all too well the vital significance of these victories.

That’s why they’re attacking Faith, Family and Freedom like never before. And they’re using the lies of cancel culture to do it.

Whether it’s Physician Assistant Valerie Kloosterman fired because she wouldn’t refer patients for gender transforming surgeries, Fire Chief Ron Hittle fired for attending a leadership conference held at a church or biology professor Dr. Johnson Varkey fired for teaching biology, people of faith are being victimized all over the country.

John, you and I both know it’s time to put a stop to these attacks.

Together, we have to stand up to those that want to bully us out of our faith.

To do that, we must dispel their lies and confront them with boldness, courage and, most importantly, with TRUTH.

And at First Liberty, that’s exactly what we’re doing.

Right now, we are fighting back against multibillion-dollar corporations like CVS and Michigan Health.

We’re also standing up to out-of-control local, state and even the federal government.

No enemy of faith is above the law.

And no enemy of faith is too big to take on.

But we can’t win without you. Our opponents have deep pockets and will spare no expense as they try to wear us down.

That’s why your generous support today is so vital.

It means the everyday Americans that you and I go to bat for will never see a legal bill.

By giving your best gift today, you will help tilt the playing field in freedom’s favor.

And when we win, every person of faith in America wins too.

Thank you for taking a stand in defense of faith, hope and TRUTH. You play a critical role in dispelling the lies of cancel culture.

Together and with God’s favor, we can secure faith for generations to come.

Yes, I will make a gift today »

Grateful for you, 

Kelly
