Christians Become a Threat to the Community

Nov 5, 2026

Christians, churches, and the Bible are being billed as “harmful” and a “threat to the community” in several places around the country.

A revival is spreading among the youth of our nation. But the forces of darkness are trying to extinguish that movement before it spreads.

Such is the situation in our most recent case, where a Christian church was specifically branded as a threat to the community, and God-haters barricaded the roads leading to the church! Sadly, that’s not the only anti-Christian bias we are fighting.

Liberty Counsel is on the front line of the fight to defend the Gospel, as the cases below show. But we need your help to keep fighting.

Give now & let the Defend the Gospel Challenge Grant double your impact!

Our government is a reflection of culture, and just as a reflection cannot change the master image, neither can politicians correct a broken culture. There is only one thing in all of human history that can change a culture for the good, and that is the Good News of Jesus Christ.

But we are living in an age when darkness is trying desperately to stop the Gospel, as our current caseload shows: 

  • In Wyoming, last weekend God haters blockaded every entrance to Foundations for Nation’s small country church in a vile attempt to keep Christians out of their community. In previous correspondence, these people specifically branded Christians as a threat to the community.

  • In Maine, the state Supreme Court ruled that a mother cannot take her teenage daughter to any church or even read the Bible, agreeing with a lower court judge that Bible-believing churches can be “harmful.”

  • In California, the City of Los Angeles ordered a city employee to undergo counseling to overcome his Christian beliefs regarding LGBTQ, effectively characterizing his Christian faith as a mental illness.

  • Also in California, Christians were unlawfully denied a permit and prohibited from holding a public outdoor worship service, but the City of Los Angeles allowed a “Pride Parade” the next week.

  • In Indiana, the Future Farmers of America (FFA) forbids Fellowship of Christian Farmers International (FCFI) from participating in the FFA’s national convention because Christian groups aren't welcome. 

  • In Washington, worshippers were violently assaulted and pelted with human waste, while the Seattle mayor labeled the Christian victims as “right-wing extremists.”

  • Again, in California, the Santa Fe School District ordered a 6-year-old to undergo reeducation counseling to overcome her Christian views about transgenderism.

  • In Virginia, a cross-dressing man is suing the nation’s largest Christian university in an effort to force it to abandon its Christian doctrine.

Sadly, we have scores more cases just like these, because Christianity is under attack from coast to coast.

Liberty Counsel isn’t just defending religious freedom.

We are defending the Gospel, and every American’s right to hear it, live it, and preach it.

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places” (Eph. 6:12).

Help us make sure Liberty Counsel is always here to defend the Gospel by making your most generous gift possible today, and let the “Defend the Gospel Challenge Grant” double your impact.

"The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it" (John 1:5).
