Election season brings up important legal considerations for churches engaging in political activities. Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) is excited to share a resource that can help you navigate this season, Church & Politics: A Legal Guide for Churches on Faithful Political Engagement.

The resource addresses five questions:

• What is my church’s view on political engagement?
• Can my church support or oppose candidates?
• Can my church be involved in lobbying?
• Can my church host election candidates?
• Can a pastor speak about politics in his personal capacity?

Our hope is that this resource helps you think deeply about the mission to which God has called your church and that it helps you navigate the legal realities that inevitably come into play for American churches.
