Human Sexuality
The Church of the Nazarene believes that every man or woman should be treated with dignity, grace, and holy love, whatever their sexual orientation. However, we continue to firmly hold the position that the homosexual lifestyle is sinful and is contrary to the Scriptures.

Clergy Sexual Abuse
Recent media coverage of cases of clergy sexual abuse has heightened our awareness of the delicate nature of the relationships which clergy and other Christian workers have with the people to whom they minister, whatever their age, gender, or circumstance.
