“I am honored to be selected as the Chairman of the Religious Liberty Commission by President Trump. The commission is comprised of some of the foremost faith leaders, scholars, and thinkers of our time."I never dreamed I'd have the opportunity to speak in the Rose Garden alongside a President – especially one who is not only a friend, but also a fellow believer.
