Faith & Freedom Coalition founder and Chairman Ralph Reed spoke recently at the Chautauqua Institution’s Interfaith Lecture Series. He spoke as a part of the “Model Leadership in Action” sponsored by the Department of Religion. Watch the full speech below on why Christians must choose the greater good and vote for candidates who are pro-life, pro-marriage, pro-religious freedom and pro-Israel.
“The nation has lost a true giant in the evangelical Christian movement with the passing of Timothy LaHaye,” said Faith & Freedom Coalition Executive Director Tim Head. “Everyone at Faith & Freedom mourns the loss of Dr. LaHaye and we offer our thoughts and prayers to Beverly and the entire family. Tim was a devoted husband, father, leader, minister and writer and will be sorely missed.”
Below is a statement from Ralph Reed, Chairman of the Faith & Freedom Coalition, on the National Basketball Association’s decision to remove the 2017 NBA All-Star Game from the city of Charlotte, North Carolina.
“The NBA’s decision to punish the state of North Carolina simply because it protects the privacy of its citizens in bathrooms, locker rooms and shower facilities is an assault on common sense and strong families. The NBA should focus on basketball, not left-wing and special interest politics. Unless and until the NBA allows men to enter WNBA locker rooms, it should leave bathroom policy to state legislatures.”
Will Evangelical voters get on board with Donald Trump? Ralph Reed speaks on The Dough Wright Show.

Today, the Faith & Freedom Coalition unveiled a new advertising campaign to run on Cleveland, Ohio television during the Republican National Convention.

It’s imperative that we keep our children and families safe when they are utilizing private restroom and changing facilities.
Statement from Timothy Head, Executive Director of the Faith & Freedom Coalition, on the recent murders of police officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Dallas, Texas.
“The Faith & Freedom Coalition joins millions of Americans in prayer for the families of the fallen heroes in Baton Rouge and Dallas.

Below is a statement from Timothy Head, Executive Director of the Faith & Freedom Coalition, on the announcement that Republican Presidential nominee Donald J. Trump has chosen Indiana Governor Mike Pence as his running mate for Vice-President of the United States.
“Mr. Trump has chosen a proven conservative in Governor Pence to be his running mate. Governor Pence has consistently served as a champion for the pro-life, pro-marriage, pro-family, pro-economic growth movement in America as a member of Congress and as Governor of Indiana. Mr. Trump and Governor Pence will bring about real reform to Washington by working to strengthen families, protect the dignity of life and marriage, lower the tax burden on small business and families, and require the federal government to live within its means.”
Statement from Timothy Head, Executive Director of the Faith & Freedom Coalition, on the release of Faith & Freedom radio ads this week in Missouri supporting unborn children and ensuring the safety of women.
“In the wake of yet another Supreme Court decision that threatens the safety of women and the lives of unborn children, Faith and Freedom Coalition re-urges all Americans that the status quo is not acceptable in our commitment to protect innocent human life. It is paramount for people of faith to know that their elected officials value life as the most sacred of rights and we encourage citizens of Missouri to thank committed champions like Missouri law professor Joshua Hawley for his uncompromising defense of those who have no voice.”
