18-year-old Brooks Hamby was told by California’s Brawley Union School District that he was not allowed to discuss his faith while delivering a commencement speech. According to Fox News’ Todd Starnes, the district “said the references to Jesus and prayer in Brooks’ graduation speech were ‘inappropriate’ and violated ‘prevailing legal standards,” which prompted officials to toss three of Hamby’s drafts. But this young Christian decided he would not be silenced despite repeated warnings. “In life, you will be told no,” he explained. “In life, you will be asked to do things that you have no desire to do. In life, you will be asked to do things that violate your conscience and your desire to do what is right.” Hamby ended with, “May the God of the Bible bless each and every one of you every day in the rest of your lives.” We commend this courageous warrior for staying true to his faith and not bowing down to those standing in the way of God-given and constitutionally protected liberties.
