The Latest Battle in the Pronoun Wars, with Josh Hershberger

August 21, 2025

What happens when a teacher’s faith collides with a school’s pronoun policy?

In our latest podcast, Craig sits down with Josh Hershberger, attorney, minister, and director of the Church Ambassador Network in Indiana, to discuss the case of John Kluge. In 2018, Kluge resigned from Brownsburg Community School after his school district revoked his religious exemption to its pronoun policy. His case is now headed to a jury, and the outcome could set a powerful precedent for religious liberty in classrooms nationwide.

Josh unpacks why this case matters for teachers, parents, and people of faith, and what it means for the future of religious freedom in America’s schools, including:

  • How schools across the country might handle faith-based accommodations
  • Why the court’s rejection of the school’s “emotional distress” claim is a key turning point
  • The national precedent that could be set for teachers, public employees, and people of faith navigating similar cultural battles

We hope you’ll take time to watch and share this important discussion. Together, we can ensure that people of faith are free to live out their convictions.
