We Need More Men Like Coach Joe Kennedy

Have you heard the latest ruling from the 9th Circuit? Three judges ruled against Joe Kennedy, a Washington State high school football coach and former Marine, for praying at the 50-yard line after each game.

The details around this story make the ruling all the more frustrating. It’s a case that might be headed to the Supreme Court.

I’m following this story because of the religious liberty issues – but there’s another, more personal reason why I’m so interested in this case. It’s because when I was a high school sophomore student, God used a football coach – a man in the mold of Joe Kennedy – to save my life.

Learn more by reading my op-ed piece at FoxNews.com: “Court shouldn’t have ruled against high school football coach who lost his job for praying.”

I hope you’ll share the piece on your social media accounts to let others know it’s #OKtoPray.
