The Baptist Joint Committee for Religious Liberty has issued a new resource related to the recent Supreme Court decision, entitled “The Supreme Court’s same-sex marriage ruling: What you need to know now,” and we encourage American Baptist churches to view this here.

It is the best guide available as to the ruling and churches, dispelling many rumors that may be circulating online.

We shall continue to work through the Baptist Joint Committee for Religious Liberty regarding issues related to separation of church and state.  We refer you to their website for current information, including helpful resources for church leaders or members looking to discuss and celebrate religious liberty at the local church level.  American Baptist Churches is one of the member Baptist bodies of the Baptist Joint Committee.
