Liberty Counsel is a 501(c)(3)[2] Christian ministry[5] that engages in strategic litigation[6] to promote evangelical Christian values.[7] Liberty Counsel was founded in 1989[1] by its chairman Mathew Staver and its president Anita L. Staver, who are attorneys and married to each other. The Southern Poverty Law Center has listed Liberty Counsel as an anti-LGBT hate group, a designation the group has disputed.[8] The group is a Christian ministry.[5]
