Faithful America used "a mobile billboard to circle the bishops’ hotel to call on them to put out 'a strong statement against ICE and Trump’s immigration policies,' as well as delivering a petition from 16,000 Catholics and ecumenical allies with the same message." religionnews.com/2025/11/11/b...

Reverend David Black has a Bible open and is preaching to the police now, inviting them to join him in standing with the persecuted inside the detention center. "Which side do you think Jesus wanted his followers to be on?"

This regime cannot pretend to stand for "religious freedom" while persecuting those who try to follow Jesus by challenging harm and oppression. Let's speak out as Christians and show solidarity with the faith leaders who are bravely taking on Trump's authoritarian ICE forces. Sign now:

“Religion and faith should never be enforced by a nation’s government, and there are endless historic (and present) examples of how such enforcement goes awry." -Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck in a new report from @americanprogress.bsky.social.

At Faithful America, we are horrified and deeply disturbed by the tragic killing of Charlie Kirk. While we disagreed with Kirk on many things, as Christians who follow the Prince of Peace we fully and unequivocally reject all acts of violence, political or otherwise.

ALL gun violence is wrong. Not just political violence. Not just school shootings. ALL gun violence is wrong. We at Faithful America continue to call on lawmakers to take ACTION to prevent gun violence -- not just thoughts and prayers. apnews.com/article/char...

As we await more details on the tragic shooting in Minnesota, we hold ourselves in fervent hope for the quick recovery of those injured and immense sadness for the lives lost. May God bring a steady hand for the families finding themselves navigating tragedy at this time.

"Always painting political opponents as enemies of God and your work as God’s will, and calling on adherents to take up arms—even if the intent is metaphorical—leads adherents to being more open to violence." www.commondreams.org/opinion/chri...

1/2 The Texas Legislature special session is poised to end religious freedom as we know it. Mainstream media is not covering the reality of Senate Bill 7. Please share this video and help get the word out!

Reminder: The United States is a religious freedom nation. We can’t and won’t be told by the government how to pray.

A word of warning from Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck. If your congregation or church body uses federal dollars, there's a new caveat from the Trump administration. You can read more here: dianabutlerbass.substack.com/p/religion-i...

John Lewis taught us all the value of making "good trouble" by taking bold, peaceful action to create real change in our communities. Tomorrow -- Thursday, July 17 -- there will be more than 1600 Good Trouble Lives On events to continue his legacy of peaceful, faith-rooted protest. RSVP now >>

More of this, please! Archbishop Weisenburger: "Immigrants and migrants are a suffering people, and because we recognize Christ and the dignity of our God in every human being, our goal today is to give a voice to those who have no voice."

Homeland security should read the entire Bible, not just the verses that sound 'fire.' Here's a favorite: "I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another." - John 13:34 www.ncronline.org/opinion/home...

We grieve 27 youth from Camp Mystic who died from the Texas flooding, along with the 80+ lives lost. We lament Trump's cuts to NWS, which could have warned people ahead of these floods to seek shelter. We reject his plan to cut FEMA when TX families need it most. www.cbsnews.com/video/camp-m...

Do you or someone you know want to put your communications experience to work resisting White Christian Nationalism and building a progressive future centered around Christ's call to love one another?https://act.faithfulamerica.org/signup/jobs/

It is unacceptable to support Trump’s fascist ICE agents for fear of being called an antisemite by Trump supporters. We grieve the shortsightedness of 75 Democrats who failed that test and threw vulnerable people under the bus to score political points. www.newsweek.com/democrats-ic...

‪“Pure religion means to care for the orphans and the widows in their times of distress and not letting the world corrupt you” Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck, @faithfulamerica.bsky.social

“When we think about religion in schools, and specifically the angle of Christian nationalists, what they’re really trying to do with religion is co-opt culture,” according to the Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck, a native Oklahoman & director of Faithful America, a social justice-driven Christian coalition.

A Catholic-run charter school in America!? @shannonmfleck.bsky.social with @faithfulamerica.bsky.social explains why St. Isidore v. Drummond would obliterate the Establishment Clause separating church & state if SCOTUS decides to allow the first religious charter school in the U.S.

ABC News: "'If today's arguments are any indication, the Supreme Court may be on the verge of abandoning one of the bedrock principles of our democracy,' said Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck, executive director of Faithful America. abcnews.go.com/Politics/sup...

First trip to DC in my new role! We need resistance AND construction to overcome this regime. I’m ready to build something sustainable, and I would love for you to join @faithfulamerica.bsky.social and me as we do just that.

Faithful America Executive Director the Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck: "This new so-called religious liberty commission is anything but. The order reads like a Christian nationalist's Christmas list and the reported list of commission members could easily be mistaken for our False Prophets Hall of Fame."

St. Isidore would be the beginning of the end for the separation of church and state. @raushenbush.bsky.social and I are at the US Supreme Court speaking out!!! We must respect religious freedom for ALL! @interfaithalliance.org @faithfulamerica.bsky.social #separationofchurchandstate

Proud to join @faithfulamerica.bsky.social outside of SCOTUS ahead of oral arguments in the OK religious charter school case, which challenges whether public funds can be used to support religious charter schools. As religious Americans, we say the separation of church and state is good for both!

Proud to stand with @faithfulamerica.bsky.social and @interfaithalliance.org at the Supreme Court today to defend true religious freedom and the vital wall between church and state. This fight belongs to believers and nonbelievers alike.

Faithful America joins people around the world in mourning the passing of Pope Francis today. His radically compassionate and loving leadership was a blessing and inspiration to us all. Rest in peace, Pope Francis.

For years, Rev. Dr. @shannonmfleck.bsky.social has been challenging Christian Nationalists in Oklahoma. Now, she’s ready to mobilize on the national level with @faithfulamerica.bsky.social.

FINALLY!!! St. Isidore needs to be on the entire nation’s radar.

The State Department is asking employees to tattle on anyone who exhibits "anti-Christian" behavior.... we have questions.

Claiming that America is a “Christian nation“ while actively creating legislation that directly harms the very people Jesus called us to serve—namely the poor, the sick, the hungry, the immigrant, and the marginalized—is the height of both religious and political hypocrisy.

FIXED IT

So thrilled to have the Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck joining our team. She's brilliant, genuine, & knows a ton about fighting Christian nationalism in a faith-centered way. Still getting her caught up on the MLB. Don't worry -- we'll have her hating the Yankees like a proper baseball fan in no time. 😂

We congratulate Phillips alum, the Rev. Dr. Shannon Fleck, who is the new executive director of Faithful America @faithfulamerica.bsky.social, the largest online community of grassroots Christians putting faith into action for social justice. Phillips celebrates Dr. Fleck’s continued leadership.
