More and more, we’re seeing countless instances of Christians being targeted and arrested for simply living out their Christian beliefs in the public square.

Mark, and many others, are the targets of the weaponized Department of Justice under Attorney General Merrick Garland, who seemingly want to silence any dissenting opinion contrary to their own.
