Lighthouse Faith

Religious Liberty and Freedom, Central to the Supreme Court Case of Lorie Smith


Listen Later

For Christians who staunchly believe in traditional marriage and that gender is an immutable biological reality, a case now before the Supreme Court will be of great interest. And if you don't believe in traditional marriage or that gender is a biological reality, the case is still of great importance. For the battle over religious freedom verses LGBTQ rights is the cultural civil war of our time. And so many other freedoms hang in the balance because of it. Attorney Kristen Waggoner on December 5th argued before the high court Justices on behalf of Lorie Smith, a Colorado-based web design artist, fighting for the right to create wedding websites, but only for opposite sex couples, because she believes that marriage is between one man and one woman. Many people thought the Supreme Court settled this dispute when they ruled in favor of Jack Phillips, the Colorado cake baker whose beliefs made him unable to create custom wedding cakes for same-sex couples. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Waggoner, CEO and General Consul of Alliance Defending Freedom, talks about why Lorie Smith's case is so vital to the future of religious freedom, and why Jack Phillips' battle with the state of Colorado wages on. She will also explain that while these two cases are most well-known, there are a plethora of people going through similar struggles, who've lost jobs and livelihoods because they stood by their faith. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus, it's a reminder that Christmas brought us a Savior that is about more than love and warmth and joy. He's also a God of justice and law. And while a secular world says to be on the right side of history, the God who created the world calls us to be on the right side of eternity.
