Our passion is to equip Christian adults with relevant, fun, age appropriate, and hope-filled ways to share God‘s word in everyday life with any child in your circle of influence. Together we will explore why it is so important to be intentional about sharing God‘s Word with the next generation of children...in the car, at the dinner table, or on rainy day adventures. They need to hear God‘s word. And we will make sure you CAN tell the children.

Did you ever wonder what religious liberties your child has when sharing and living out their faith at school? It can be difficult to know where the legal lines are. Today we’re talking with Matt Sharp, Senior Council with Alliance Defending Freedom, as he unpacks the legalities behind ‘Speak, Meet, and Equal Treatment.’ Ready to hear some practical and actionable advice on our children’s religious freedoms? Let's go....
MATT SHARP serves as Senior Counsel and State Government Relations National Director with Alliance Defending Freedom, where he focuses on state and local legislative matters.
Since joining ADF in 2010, Sharp has authored federal and state legislation, regularly provides testimony and legal analysis on how proposed legislation will impact constitutional freedoms, and advises governors, legislators, and state and national policy organizations on the importance of laws and policies that protect First Amendment rights. He has testified before the United States Congress on the importance of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
Sharp has also worked on important cases advancing religious freedom and free speech. He has won cases upholding the rights of students to form religious clubs, invite classmates to church, and even perform a religious song at a school talent show. He authored an amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of nearly 9,000 students, parents, and community members asking the Court to uphold students’ right to privacy against government intrusion.
Sharp earned his J.D. in 2006 from the Vanderbilt University School of Law. A member of the bar in Georgia and Tennessee, he is also admitted to practice in several federal courts.
