Notable contributions

In October 2024, Chron religion reporter, Eric Killelea, covered the news that the pastor of Lakepointe Church in Rockwall, Texas, had instructed congregants how to vote in the 2024 [United States presidential election] via a sermon titled "How to Vote Like Jesus." In response to this reporting, the Freedom From Religion Foundation called on the Internal Revenue Service to revoke the tax-free privileges of the church. As of March 1, 2025, Lakepointe Church is still designated as a 501 organization.
