Nashville Statement sparks controversy in Christian Circles
A recent survey showed 62% of Christians support same-sex marriage.
Responding, a host of evangelical leaders coalesced in Nashville on August 29 to draft and sign a statement about current gender and sexuality trends holding to the historical orthodox Christian stance.
They met during the Southern Baptist Convention’s yearly Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission at Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center in Nashville to sign the Nashville Statement.
