We believe churches and ministries are essential in illuminating truth and eternal hope in our society. This light—the Gospel—is one that culture and many of our laws seek to dim.
That’s why Alliance Defending Freedom established the Church & Ministry Alliance.
We exist to safeguard your religious freedom from cultural pressures and an overreaching government. We want to equip your ministry with legal support and education so you can freely pursue your calling.
Our team is comprised of Christian attorneys and advocates who share your commitment to and excitement for the Gospel. By joining the ADF Church & Ministry Alliance, you can confidently know that your ministry stands on a firm legal foundation.
Pastoring a Church in the 21st Century presents great challenges that no previous generation has ever experienced before. As the Church grows, so does the reality of someone trying to attack the Church from a legal standpoint. This is why we are very excited about our on going partnership with ADF! This relationship gives me great confidence - knowing that there is someone on our side and looking out for our best interest! The world is ever changing and our best offense in reaching lost people is a really good defense!
