Why We’re Wedded to Traditional Marriage
John Stonestreet with the Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview has a new radio spot out explaining why Christians are “wedded” to traditional marriage.
In his one-minute recording, Stonestreet says,
“Waiting for Christians to back down on gay marriage? Don’t hold your breath…the [Christian] faith has been surprisingly consistent on sexuality. Christian opposition to homosexual acts is of a piece with a much broader vision of what it means to be a human being, and Christians will never completely part with that view.
“Marriage…is at the heart of the Christian story. Scripture begins with a wedding, the Church is called a bride, our God a groom, and history is consummated with a cosmic reception dinner. So backing down on marriage for Christians means backing down on the whole story, and that’s unlikely.”
