Festival For Freedom
First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Insofar as possible, content from the various speakers and guests at Festival for Freedom will be offered for the many attendees who expressed the desire to be able to hear again the talks they found so informative. It will also offer those who wanted to come, but who were unable, the opportunity to experience something which so many enjoyed during the Festival.
Content is in the reverse order of presentation (earliest, on June 21, 2012 is at the bottom.) Some files are excerpts, some were provided as WORD documents by the speaker, some are audio files and some are video files, depending on the resources available at the time of the speech. A few will not be able to have content posted. Live performances are usually not summarized or recorded, but are included so that links may be shown. Videos, liturgy and miscellaneous events are not included in this Speakers’ List.
It may take some time to secure all the content; but, it will be posted as it becomes available. Check back often for new content.
