Courageous Christians Share Their Stories at Pray Vote Stand Summit |
by S.A. McCarthy |
A handful of bold Christians who have taken a stand for their faith spoke at Family Research Council's Pray Vote Stand summit on Saturday, during a panel entitled "Profiles in Courage." FRC President Tony Perkins explained the panel's purpose, "When men and women like this are attacked for standing for the biblical truth, ... what are we to do? Stand with them? Absolutely." He continued, "Because when we stand with them, guess what? The Left is going to back off, because they're hoping that we will shrink back into the shadows and will be intimidated because they put their target on individuals like this." He emphasized, "We should boldly stand with men and women who come under attack for their stand for truth." |

According to DHS, Bojovic overstayed a six-month tourist visa that required him to leave the country by March 31, 2015.
