Day of Truth 2006

Apr 25–26, 2006 - comment

Our students need your help and encouragement. For the tenth year in a row, the The Gay, Lesbian, Straight Educational Network is sponsoring their annual Day of Silence in thousands of schools across America. But there is a growing movement of students who are taking a loving, respectful stand against this propaganda to promote the truth.

Mike Johnson from the Alliance Defense Fund is here to tell us about The Day of Truth on April 27th. It’s a day that counters the promotion of the homosexual agenda and expresses a Christian perspective on the issue. Students are encouraged to wear T-shirts and pass out cards to voice their convictions.

The Day of Truth is scheduled for April 27th. This is the day after The Gay, Lesbian, Straight Educational Network will sponsor the “Day of Silence.” But the Day of Silence is a misnomer, because what is truly being silenced is the Truth. The Day of Truth is an excellent opportunity for students to influence their classmates from a Christian perspective.

Mike serves as legal counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund, at its Regional Service Center for the Southeastern United States. Prior to joining ADF, a non-profit legal defense and advocacy organization dedicated to religious liberty, traditional family values, and the sanctity of life, Mike worked as an attorney with notable law firms in north and south Louisiana. He has been a principal drafter of pro-family legislation for Louisiana and states and municipalities across the country.
