Georgia Cop Resigns After Controversial Facebook Post About Christian Marriage | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

A Georgia cop is out of a job, resigning after he refused to remove a Facebook post regarding his Christian beliefs about marriage. Former Officer Jacob Kersey wrote, "God designed marriage. Marriage refers to Christ and the Church. That's why there's no such thing as homosexual marriage." Jacob Kersey joins to tell us what happened next. His superiors say his Facebook post did not actually violate any policies, but that it "could raise reasonable concerns regarding your objectivity and the performance of your job duties when a member or suspected member of the LGBTQ+ community is involved." Kersey shares his reaction to this statement. He discusses what went through his mind leading up to the decision to resign and whether he has any regrets. Kersey is young at only 19 years of age, he fills us in on what is next for him. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
