What strange times we live in. Strange...and disturbing.
Would you have ever imagined seeing headlines about churches and ministries being vandalized and, in some instances, set on fire—all while authorities seem to turn a blind eye to the violence?
Or stories about how the FBI opened investigations into Catholic parishes in the United States?
How about the significant decrease in church attendance, which dropped by up to 15 million people per week, due to COVID lockdowns that forced many houses of worship to close?
These news stories demonstrate the mounting pressure Christians encounter in our increasingly secular society. In many ways, it seems like faith in America is under siege.
That's one reason we're releasing our latest free online course, "Ancient Christianity," this month. I hope you'll enroll today using this secure link:
 https://online.hillsdale.edu/landing/ancient-christianity/prereg
The course delves into the hardships and courage of early Christians who endured terrible persecution for their faith. At the same time, they shaped the Christian church and established the foundations of the Western world, including the United States.
Their examples of "faith that overcomes" can inspire us today.
For instance, the course covers the Roman Emperor Nero's persecution of Christians and introduces Tertullian, the first Latin Christian theologian. Many historians believe Tertullian was a lawyer who defended Christians from legal persecution, and he wrote against Rome's treatment of women, abortion, and immorality.
That's why, after enrolling, I hope you'll join us in promoting "Ancient Christianity" to millions of your fellow citizens.
To achieve this objective, we've set a goal to raise $500,000 by midnight on May 22 to share this important free online course with as many people as possible.
The faithful backing of supporters like you makes our free online courses possible. You also allow us to reach and teach millions through other educational outreach efforts, like Imprimis and our K-12 education programs.
And every supporter like you really matters to us because we refuse EVERY PENNY of taxpayer funding—even indirectly in the form of federal or state student loans and grants.
We must educate ourselves. Looking back at the Christians of the past, we can see how they faced the overpowering might of an empire and set an example for us to follow.
So, will you help us reach and teach people just like you—urging them to enroll in "Ancient Christianity"?
Using this secure link, you can enroll and chip in to offset our development and promotional costs with a tax-deductible gift of $25, $50, or any amount.

Together, we can secure the blessings of civil and religious liberty for the next generation of Americans—so they don't have to live through even stranger times than the ones we live in today.
Warm regards,
