Former Navy Chaplain Defied Rules to Defend Right to Pray - A Discussion With Gordon Kingenschmitt

Former U.S. Navy Chaplain and elected official Gordon Kingenschmitt tells his story in this episode of Crossroads about how, as a Navy Chaplin, he was told he could not pray in Jesus' name outside the church. After seeing this military policy, he decided to openly defy it in order to stand up for his religious rights. This cost him dearly, in terms of material interest, but his actions changed the law and defended the religious liberties of himself and others.
