Alan E. Sears: Why Pastors Must Be Free To Preach On PoliticsADF President and General Counsel Alan E. Sears at Townhall: And make no mistake: every political question is, at root, a moral issue. That, of course, is the underlying reason for every legal effort to silence and sabotage the participation of churches and pastors in the political process – the recognition that, on moral issues, those who take their faith seriously, and commit themselves as groups and individuals to the truth of Scripture, inevitably carry a different and often more substantial moral authority than the government and its elected leaders.
