A local official in Maryland recently announced that she is willing to go to jail because of her Christian faith.

Carroll County Commissioner Robin Bartlett Frazier decided that she will continue to defy a federal judge’s order against sectarian prayers in board meetings, and is willing to suffer any consequences.

On March 26, U.S. District Judge William D. Quarles issued a temporary injunction barring the commissioners from having sectarian prayers before meetings. One day later, Bartlett Frazier defied the ruling.
