JDFI welcomes the recent launch of a new organization, The Danbury Institute. According to its website, the Institute is dedicated to promoting Judeo-Christian values, defending the free-exercise of religion and promoting the Christian worldview in an increasingly secular United States.
The advisory council is led by Richard Land, a long-time friend of Dr. James Dobson and JDFI. Dr. Land is president emeritus of Southern Evangelical Seminary and executive editor of The Christian Post.
In a statement, Land said, "I am both honored and humbled to endorse and recommend The Danbury Institute. Never has our beloved country more needed to be reminded of her founding values of soul freedom and religious liberty so bravely defended by our 18th century Danbury Baptist ancestors. I pray God's manifold blessings on their noble efforts to protect and restore our sacred liberties."
Chief Operating Officer Collin Hain describes the new organization as, "an association of churches, Christians, and organizations aligned to affirm and preserve God-given rights to life and liberty by influencing culture and public policy, upholding the free-exercise of religion, inspiring the vigorous involvement of an informed citizenry, and promoting Judeo-Christian values as the proper foundation for a free and prosperous republic."
We welcome The Danbury Institute to the battle raging in our country to preserve faith, family and freedom. The future of America will be bleak indeed if we are ripped out of the rich soil of Judeo-Christian civilization, which is rooted in the Bible.
