Bible2School is on a mission to redefine how America thinks about religion during the public school day. ‘Separation of church and state’ does not mean our children need to leave their faith at the front door of the school.
In this previous episode, we heard from Sr. Counsel Matt Sharp from Alliance Defending Freedom, who discussed some of the rights students have to express their faith in public school. Now, this conversation zeros in on 5 specific ways we can encourage our kids to express their faith with others while in school!
As we learn to teach our kids how to openly express their faith with others, they’ll start growing into leaders who make a lasting impact for God’s kingdom on earth! There’s nothing more inspirational than hearing stories of bold faith in action, especially in the lives of children.
Are you ready to hear 5 ways kids can express their faith with others during their school day? Let’s go!
MATT SHARP serves as senior counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom, where he is the director of the Center for Legislative Advocacy and focuses on state and local legislative matters.
Since joining ADF in 2010, Sharp has authored federal and state legislation, regularly provides testimony and legal analysis on how proposed legislation will impact constitutional freedoms, and advises governors, legislators, and state and national policy organizations on the importance of laws and policies that protect First Amendment rights. He has testified before the United States Congress on the importance of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
Sharp has also worked on important cases advancing religious freedom and free speech. He has won cases upholding the rights of students to form religious clubs, invite classmates to church, and even perform a religious song at a school talent show. He authored an amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of nearly 9,000 students, parents, and community members asking the Court to uphold students’ right to privacy against government intrusion.
Sharp earned his J.D. in 2006 from the Vanderbilt University School of Law. A member of the bar in Georgia and Tennessee, he is also admitted to practice in several federal courts.
