The Denominational Statements Database collects the most up-to-date information about the official positions of all major U.S. religious denominations on sexuality-related issues. We hope clergy, theologians, seminarians, religious educators, congregational committees, journalists, and people of faith will find this resource useful as a tool for discernment, research, and programming.

Each entry consists of the full text (or excerpt) of a denomination’s position on a particular issue and, in some cases,a link to the original source.

This Denominational Statement Database is continually evolving, and new statements are added regularly. We encourage you to notify us of any denominational statements that have not yet been updated or included. This database is for informational purposes only. All content remains copyright of the denomination by which it was written.
