The Trinity Forum and the National Association Of Evangelicals (NAE) Platforms PRIDE-Celebrating ‘Pastor’
Adam Russell Taylor, the president of Sojourners and a pastor ordained in the American Baptist Church + the Progressive National Baptist Convention, will be joining National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) president Walter Kim for a presentation on “civic discipleship,” teaching Christians how to “participate in public life” i.e. politics. The event is being sponsored by The Trinity Forum, a Christian organization founded by Os Guinness.
Sojourners describes itself as “an ecumenical Christian media and advocacy organization that works towards social and racial justice.”
In 2022, Taylor wrote an op-ed for the publication about bans on what he labels “gender-affirming care” for “trans kids.” He declared: “these bills and efforts represent an assault on imago dei and contradict the Great Commandment [to love one’s neighbor] (Matthew 22:36-40).”
Last year during Pride Month, Sojourners ran a series of articles titled “The Joy of Being Queer and Christian.” The headlines in the series:
“Asexual and Aromantic People Are Often Forgotten, But God Sees Us”
“The Trinity Delights In My Unique Trans, Nonbinary Identity”
“Black, Butch, Queer — and Baptized Into God’s Scandalous Love”
“Mary, Mother of God, Help Me Find Queer Joy”
“Led Out in Joy, with Rainbow Cookies and Fresca”
“God Created Me To Be a Transgender Man”
“How the Pride Flag Speaks to the Promises of God”
That same month, Taylor shared a photo of himself and other Sojourner staffers on their office balcony having a “Popsicles For Pride” event, with several of his subordinates waving “Progress Pride” flags.
This is not the kind of mealy-mouthed, “I hold to biblical sexual ethics but cannot abide homophobia” fence-riding you see throughout the evangelical publishing industry. This is full-blown “queerness of the Trinity” liberalism.
There is very little chance that the NAE’s Walter Kim and The Trinity Forum, led by Cherie Harder, are not aware of Taylor’s activism on this issue. We’re reached out to both organizations and will update this article if any comment is forthcoming.
These organizations are presenting Taylor, who cannot even co-sign bans on transing kids, as an expert on Christian political witness.
2 John 10-11 warns Christians regarding false teachers: “Do not take them into your house or welcome them. Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work.”
