(The Christian Post) A Georgia pastor is no longer allowed to lead a public high school football team in prayer after a video of one of his prayers was seen by thousands online. Dawson County Schools has responded to a complaint from one of the nation’s largest atheist legal groups by barring Pastor Russell Davis from leading the Dawson County High School football team in prayer. The decision comes as a video of Davis praying with the Falcons players and coaches was posted to Facebook on Sept. 7

and has been seen over 73,000 times as of Thursday afternoon. In the video, Davis prayed for the players to be able to “unite people together” and to know that God has purpose in their lives.”The Word says when they came out they compelled Him to carry the cross, and then Jesus went to the hill and He won victory on the cross,” Davis says in the video. “Your goal tonight is not to die on the cross. It is not to die on the field of battle. We’re calling you out tonight to carry their cross.” READ MORE
