BJC is a religious-institutions organization headquartered in Washington, DC, founded in 1936. Its work centers on protecting religious liberty and the separation of church and state, drawing on a Baptist perspective of “soul freedom.” The group brings together attorneys, ministers, scholars, and advocates to file briefs in pivotal Supreme Court cases, influence legislation, and testify before Congress, aiming to ensure that Americans can follow their spiritual beliefs. Operating at the national level, BJC positions itself as a faith-based advocate that collaborates across faiths to defend religious liberty for all. The organization serves individuals and communities seeking protections for religious practice and free exercise within the broader public policy landscape.
