    Uncommon Courage: Keisha Russell on Defending Religious Freedom in America

    This episode of Conversations with Christians Engaged is part of our Stories from America series, featuring believers making a real impact in culture. In this episode, Bunni Pounds sits down with constitutional attorney Keisha Russell of First Liberty Institute to discuss her new book on defending religious freedom. Keisha shares her journey from teaching special education in Atlanta to becoming one of the nation’s leading defenders of religious liberty. Together, Bunni and Keisha dive deep into why the First Amendment matters for every believer, how Christians can boldly exercise their rights, and why fear should never keep us from living out our faith in public. They explore real cases—from Coach Kennedy’s historic win at the Supreme Court to believers standing firm in schools and workplaces—and unpack the cultural misunderstandings around “separation of church and state.” Keisha reminds us that defending freedom isn’t just about courtrooms; it’s about inspiring everyday Christians to know the truth, stand firm, and proclaim the gospel without fear. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly episodes of Conversations with Christians Engaged to learn how to pray, vote, and engage with biblical clarity. 📖 “The righteous are as bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1) Learn more, support, and get involved: christiansengaged.org christiansengaged.org/donate christiansengaged.org/pledgeConnect with Keisha Russell and First Liberty Institute: First Liberty's Website: https://firstliberty.org Keisha's Book: https://www.harvesthousepublishers.com/books/uncommon-courage-9780736986403 Instagram: @keishatonirussell, @firstlibertyinstitute Twitter/X: @1stLiberty#ChristianPodcast #FaithInAction #KeishaRussell #UncommonCourage #ReligiousLiberty
