WASHINGTON, Nov. 13, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ -- Tomorrow, Family Research Council Action President Tony Perkins will join Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) at the "Rally for Religious Liberty" in Greenville, SC. The rally will call attention to recent government attacks on the religious liberties of Americans.

Perkins, who is also author of the new book No Fear: Real Stories of a Courageous New Generation Standing for Truth, will share the book's stories of young believers who, despite incredible opposition, courageously stood up for God's truth. Perkins made the following comments:

"I am honored to join my friend Ted Cruz in defending America's First Freedom. Last month I was privileged to join Gov. Mike Huckabee in Kentucky for a rally in support of Kim Davis, who had been jailed for exercising her religious freedom. I am grateful for these leaders who are willing to stand boldly not only for Americans' freedom to believe, but the freedom to live according to those beliefs.

"I will stand with any presidential candidate who will stand for our First Freedom. Never before in the history of this country has religious freedom been more endangered than it is today under the policies of the Obama administration. I look forward to being with Senator Cruz at Bob Jones University," concluded Perkins.
