Religious Liberty Sunday
An event every year that begins at 12:00 am on day first of July, repeating until July 4, 2027
As the Baptist Faith & Message 2000 declares, “A free church in a free state is the Christian ideal.” We’ve provided a free video and bulletin insert for use in your church on this Sunday.
Baptists’ unwavering commitment to religious liberty has been a defining feature of their history and identity. From the early theological convictions of John Smyth and Thomas Helwys to the modern advocacy of the ERLC, Baptists have consistently championed the principle that faith must be free from state coercion. As the world becomes increasingly pluralistic, the Baptist tradition of advocating for religious liberty remains crucial. By continuing this legacy, Baptists and others committed to religious freedom can ensure that this fundamental right is preserved and protected for future generations.
