Frequently asked questions
What is Freedom Through Christ?
Freedom Through Christ is a nonprofit organization established specifically to manage funds for The Spirit of Freedom pageant. However, we envision it growing into a broader mission with a life of its own over time.
Our motto: "Emboldening Christians to uphold faith, family, and freedom while preparing for the return of Jesus Christ."
Is this production associated with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?
No. This project is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Will the production specifically promote teachings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?
No. The Christian truths presented in the script are widely recognized across most Christian denominations, including The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
There is a single reference to Joseph Smith, as John Lothropp was Smith's 5th great-grandfather. In that sense, this performance can be seen as a spiritual prequel to the Mormon Miracle Pageant—though the events depicted took place long before the organization of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
