Dear John,
As we close out our fiscal year on June 30th, we are looking forward to positioning First Liberty for a strong finish to 2025.
And I can tell you, we are facing both critical challenges in the fight for faith and unique opportunities to secure the future of religious freedom.
Today, I’m joining First Liberty Live’s Stuart Shepard to discuss key victories from the past year, three potential Supreme Court cases and our best opportunities to expand religious freedom for the next generation.

But overcoming these challenges and seizing these opportunities depends on you.
Let me explain.
As a nonprofit law firm, we never send our clients a bill for our services. Instead, we depend on the generosity of people like you to meet the financial demands of their cases.
Bottomline, you make it possible for everyday Americans who could never afford the legal help they need to fight back when their faith’s attacked.
The Future of Religious Freedom Depends on You $500,000 Challenge Grant Maximizes Your Impact
There are people of faith all over the country facing attacks by school districts, companies and local leaders. People like:
- Marisol Arroyo-Castro who was removed from the classroom for displaying a small cross.
- Lacey Smith who was fired by Alaska Airlines for asking a faith-based question.
- Pastor Chris Avell who was criminally charged for showing compassion to those in need.
You can be a difference-maker for Marisol, Lacey and Pastor Chris. By giving today, you are ensuring that our expert legal team has the resources needed in these critical fights for religious freedom.
And if you make your best gift before June 30th, you will maximize your impact for faith and future generations thanks to our Fiscal Year End $500,000 Challenge Grant.
Will you be a difference maker in these fights for faith?
I hope you'll say, "Yes, I’ll maximize my impact now!"
Grateful for you,
Kelly
