I don't believe in Easter, but the resurrection of Jesus, who is called Christ, from the dead I do.
It's for the Gospel that we stand for freedom
| | Happy Easter, As we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus on Sunday, I pray that you and your family can meditate on the goodness of God this season and find ultimate rest in Him. God, the author of life, sacrificed His only son to pay the debt of our sin and rise victorious over death so that you and I may have eternal life in Christ. This Easter message is the greatest news in the world. How can we possibly keep silent? Yet we face increasing opposition to our faith today. Jesus told the disciples this would be the case! Governments around the world are trying to censor and suppress this message and biblical truth. They're opposed to the truth about marriage, the family, our identity, and so much more. So, while our culture is shrouded in darkness and confusion, remember: we've been given the light of the world! It's Christ who will vanquish lies and change hearts. It's Christ who has conquered sin and death through His resurrection and now reigns at the right hand of God our Father. The world needs to hear of this great hope! When you stand for free speech and religious freedom you can help protect the freedom to share the Gospel with others. Because there is no human solution to the confusion and rebellion we see in our culture today—there's only the Gospel of Christ. This Easter, will you help keep the door open for the spread of the Gospel? Your special Easter gift will help protect those who are trying to live out their faith in Christ. | | | | I want to encourage you to look to Christ. When the world seems like it's spinning out of control, look to Christ. When our culture's lies seem powerful and overwhelming, remember that God's word never fails. And when it seems like the opposition to our faith is stronger than we are, remember that it's not our strength we rely on—it's the Lord's. As you stand alongside us to defend truth and faith, know that God can use you to help spread His light in the darkness we face. As you support people like Jack Phillips, the cake artist from Colorado who continues to be opposed by an activist attorney as he seeks to express messages consistent with his faith, you help advance the spread of the Gospel. Jack is a witness to God's grace as he displays bold faith in the midst of hardship. And as you help fuel the critical case of Jessica Bates, an Oregon mother whose application to adopt was unjustly denied due to her Christian convictions, you help encourage other believers. Jessica's testimony bears witness to the faithfulness of our great God! The resurrection of Jesus has given us a great and sure hope: that no matter the cultural tumult and opposition to our faith we experience here on earth, He will sustain us because we are His. Please join us in standing for the truth today as we look to Christ in all we do. All our brave clients are represented in court free of charge because of the generosity of our Ministry Friends, and through the grace of God, we win nearly 80% of all our cases. Help stand for the freedom to live out the truth and come to the aid of those being targeted for spreading the good news. Please give your best gift today. | | | | | | Kristen Waggoner CEO, President & General Counsel Alliance Defending Freedom | | | | | |
