A group of evangelical Christian leaders signed and issued a statement that affirms what they believe to be the biblical view on sex, gender, and marriage. There has been a tremendous backlash in the mainstream and social media world against the so-called Nashville Statement. From the now-standard accusations of bigotry and hatred to the issuing of counter-statements, opinions are raging from both the inside and the outside of the church walls. Andy, Steve, and Terry bring their opinions to the table, too, in this week's episode of the AC Podcast.
For context, we encourage you to read the Nashville Statement before you listen to this episode.

I know I’m a couple weeks late to this, and I don’t know if you guys addressed this elsewhere at a later time, but Preston Sprinkle is probably not a celibate man with homosexual feelings. I don’t know much about him, but he has a wife and 4 kids.
This surely is a subject the Church cannot ignore or hide from.
“Through the Eye of a Needle” (a Memoir) is a practical, true and moving story about this subject, providing the reader with valuable information from a different but interesting viewpoint.
