I have been invited to live blog FRC's Liberty Sunday which is in Boston this Sunday October 15th. The blogging will be done here at the Exodus: Live Out Loud Blog. I will be posting off and on during the day. There is a press conference and other events in the afternoon. During the actual simulcast I will be posting "live" updates during the presentations. Exodus President, Alan Chambers, will be one of the keynote speakers.
From the Liberty Sunday website:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."
So begins the Bill of Rights with the first amendment to our Constitution--one that guarantees a God-given freedom. For over 200 years the light of the church has illuminated this freedom, but now a radical agenda seeks to extinguish that flame.
The expansion of non-discrimination laws to include homosexuality inevitably constricts our right to express and act on our religious beliefs. Recently, there has been a string of incidents involving government intolerance against those who live out their faith in the public square.
To respond to this growing threat, I'm pleased to announce that on October 15, 2006, FRC will host a nationwide simulcast from Boston, Massachusetts called "Liberty Sunday: Defending Our First Freedom." I invite you to join us as we examine the cultural and legal influences that threaten to erode religious liberties and muzzle free speech.Tony Perkins
