Protection of the family and Christian values
The NRB called on state and federal lawmakers to improve children’s digital safety with measures such as age verification on devices and improved app ratings on digital stores. It also encouraged Christian developers to create safe and edifying technological alternatives for families.
Regarding artificial intelligence, the board urged Christians to use it wisely, avoiding its application in immoral practices or those that violate human dignity.
Position on international conflicts and religious persecution
On the global level, the NRB condemned antisemitism, urging Christians to reject any ideology of hatred against Israel and the Jewish people. It also expressed solidarity with persecuted Christians in Armenia and around the world, reaffirming its commitment to defending religious freedom.
In light of the crisis in the Middle East, the NRB called for the immediate release of hostages kidnapped by Hamas and called on the Christian community to pray for peace in the region.
Prayer for US leadership
The board urged Christians to intercede in prayer for President Donald J. Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, U.S. Supreme Court justices, members of Congress and other authorities, asking for the spiritual well-being of the nation.
With these resolutions, NRB leaders reaffirmed their commitment to defending freedom of expression, protecting Christian values, and promoting peace in an increasingly challenging global context for faith.
