A few months ago, we broke the story that ‘Christian’ band Relient K came out as pro-LGBTQ after inviting open and unrepentantly gay musician Semler to join them on their upcoming tour and selling LGBTQ merch. This came on the heels of Switchfoot’s Jon Foreman Releasing a pro-LGBTQ TikTok video. We followed this up with an investigation into music group Five-Iron Frenzy, showing the band had come out as pro-LBGTQ and that frontman Reece Roper was pro-choice and lost. More standouts include:
Exclusive. CCM Artist Sara Groves Comes Out as Gay-Affirming
Amy Grant Defends Hosting Same Sex Marriage “I Love Those Brides”
Christian Band ‘Plumb’ Comes Out as LGBTQ-Affirming
We also covered the fall of Jars of Clay, documenting how frontman Dan Haseltine was pro-LGBTQ, pro-trans and pro-choice. Notably, at the time, despite showing a long history of problematic and damning statements, some accused of us extrapolating his words or reading more into it than was said.
Hopefully, this Instagram post from June 1st, 2024 from Haseltine puts that to rest once and for all.
