New Hope Family Services last week reached its final legal settlement with New York’s state government, after state officials tried to revoke the organization’s certification because its religious priorities limit adoptions to married couples with one man and one woman. The Syracuse-based Christian adoption agency has already won one of its two lawsuits on First Amendment protections. 
New Hope is represented by legal network Alliance Defending Freedom. ADF Senior Counsel Mark Lippelmann tells Family Life about the core issues of the case, plus what it means moving forward for Constitutional protections for businesses and organizations which conduct themselves guided by Biblical and theological guidance.
Lippelmann also has encouragement for Christians — in organizations and individually — on standing strong in faith, regardless of opposition from the government or objections from the surrounding culture.

“Apathy: (noun) lack of interest in or concern for things that others find moving or exciting.”
Apathy has spread across the American culture. While this is not true everywhere, such disinterest and lack of motivation seeps into the church in many places.
Digital postings have replaced face-to-face communication, many settle into contentment with a status quo, and Biblical truths are sidelined from public awareness.
Our “Real Answers” expert, Christian counselor Christopher Anderson, offers his perspective on how this passivity developed, and what Christians and church leaders can do to bounce back when that trend pops up. He says there are ways that people of faith can be “in the world, but not of the world.”
