Dear Patriot,
When I was a young pastor in Miami, we would perform baptisms at the beach. That lasted until the Parks Department SHUT US DOWN because a lifeguard complained. People were protesting us even going so far as to curse out me and my parishioners.
We thought about suing the city of Miami because they told us we could only do it around 5 or 6 in the morning because it was OFFENSIVE to beach goers. Can you imagine such a beautiful celebration of faith being called OFFENSIVE? This is the world we live in now…
I asked a simple question: Do you have people patrolling others praying over their picnics on the beach? Of course they don’t. It would be a preposterous waste of resources just like this was.
Throughout my years as a pastor, I’ve learned that when you are emboldened or when you take a tough stand, you inspire others. I saw this firsthand in Miami: the lifeguard who complained in the first place ended up getting baptized. The Parks Manager who we originally met with came to Christ and sits in the second row at every single Sunday service.
This is why I decided to partner with National Faith Advisory Board (NFAB). I want to inspire more people of faith to stand up PROUDLY for their values. Our spiritual and moral values belong in government, and we need to stand up for what we believe in just like I did in Miami.
We are looking for Grassroots Patriots and People of Faith who will vow to proudly assert their right to religious liberty and freedom. Can we count on you to join us?
