About this sermon
Christians in the Pacific Northwest and West Coast are celebrating a recent ruling regarding adoption and foster care. In a landmark decision, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found that Oregon violated the rights of Jessica Bates, a Christian widow and mother of five, by disqualifying her from adoption solely due to her religious beliefs—specifically her refusal to affirm certain aspects of gender ideology.
