Religious Liberty

August 28, 2014

Pastor,
I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that religious freedom is under attack in America. You've heard or seen news stories about Christian business owners being forced to violate their beliefs, judges requiring churches to rent their buildings to ungodly organizations and children being bullied to abandon their faith at the schoolhouse doors.

Our Founding Fathers built into the fabric of America a freedom of religious expression. Today, these freedoms are being threatened on every side.

As a pastor, your leadership is crucial to preserving the precious gift of religious liberty for the next generation. America needs pastors who are bold and who will proclaim truth, not just from the pulpit, but in the hedges and byways as well.

Will you be that bold pastor?
American Family Studios has produced two powerful new documentaries illustrating the growing threats to religious liberty in the U. S., highlighting case studies and trends that may change America forever. In these films, we think you will find that now is a time for pastors like you to speak out, to lead your congregations in helping restore America’s Godly heritage in our generation...and in the next.
One Generation Away is 90 minutes and contains dissenting voices which represent the ideological shift in America that your church members face every day.
A Time to Speak is 60 minutes and is equally informative and provocative with an additional focus on a pastor’s role to encourage voting and civil responsibilities straight from the pulpit.
I want to encourage you to click the button below and watch both movies with no obligation other than to heed God’s leading for how you should respond.
Just as Ecclesiastes says in chapter 3, verses 1 and 7, "To every thing there is a season...A time to keep silence, and a time to speak." Now is the time to speak.
Thanks for caring enough to get involved.
Sincerely,

Bert Harper
Director of Marriage, Family,
and Pastoral Ministries
