Faith, Freedom, and the Law: U.S. Legal Developments and Global Impact

Dr Shannae Anderson and Dr Mercy Connors of the American Association of Christian Counselors join Hal Frampton of Alliance Defending Freedom to examine significant legal developments affecting religious liberty, freedom of speech, professional conscience, and mental health practice. The presenters will provide updates on recent U.S. court cases, including developments before the U.S. Supreme Court, and consider how these decisions may influence counseling, pastoral care, public policy, and emerging legal trends around the world. Participants will gain practical insight into navigating the changing legal and ethical landscape while maintaining professional integrity, compassionate care, and fidelity to their faith.
