FRC’s Andrew Brunson unveils new series of videos on potential domestic religious persecution in the wake of the impending Dobbs ruling
WASHINGTON, June 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Today, the Family Research Council’s Special Advisor on Religious Liberty, Andrew Brunson, released a new video series and bible study with his first-hand experience and advice on how Christians can prepare to withstand direct persecution for their faith here in United States. A series of recent attacks across the country against churches and pro-life ministries (48 attacks since May 2ndn/a), many of which are linked to the backlash from the left to the leaked draft opinion of the United States Supreme Court in Dobbs v. Jackson for Women health organization, illustrated the growing hostility towards Christianity across the country.
The video series is distributed to tens of thousands of pastors and other church leaders who make up FRC’s Association of Churches and Ministries.
Andrew and his wife, Norine, have been involved in establishing churches and a house of prayer, training Christian leaders and helping refugees in Turkey for 23 years. In October 2016, Andrew Brunson was falsely accused of terrorism and was detained for two years in Turkish prisons. Following a global prayer movement and significant political pressure from United States government, Andrew was eventually released in October 2018.
Brunson commented on the video series:
“I believe a dark tidal wave is looming on the horizon. It is a wave of hostility and persecution that is about to descend upon the American church. We as Americans , have been conditioned not to expect persecution for living Bible truth, but as the tides of American culture turn against our first freedom, we must be prepared to withstand any coming persecution we might to be faced here on a national level. It is because I know how dangerous and difficult persecution can be that I have such a sense of urgency for our I want to help train my brothers and sisters in Christ to be faithful to the end, wherever God may lead us; to help the American Church prepare to stand firm.”
