TLN SPECIAL REPORT: Illinois Vote – Same-Sex Marriage

The contentious debate about legalizing same-sex “marriage” in Illinois is now front and center.  Tune-in to the Total Living Network tonight, Friday, February 15th, at 9:00 P.M. for the premiere of cable TV’s Total Living Network’s (TLN) Special Report: Illinois Vote – Same Sex Marriage to learn more. A panel of leaders in the movement to defend marriage investigates the potential effects of this proposed legislation on religious freedom in Illinois. 

As you know, the Illinois Senate voted yesterday to pass the so-called “Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act.” The bill will now move to the Illinois House for consideration.  This bill would treat same-sex marriage as a civil right, but is it a civil right?  How would same sex marriage affect the church?  How would this bill alter the lives of Christians, Orthodox Jews and Muslims?  What actions need to be taken? 

Join moderator Greg Bogdan, Executive Director, TLN, and his guests Linda Jernigan, Rescuing Ministries; David E. Smith, Executive Director, Illinois Family Institute; and Dan Haas, Director of Ministries, TLN, as they tackle these difficult questions. 

Marriage is an institution created by God and is the foundation of our society.  We need to speak out for marriage as well as the religious freedoms guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Share the news with others and don’t miss the premiere of TLN Special Report: Illinois Vote – Same Sex Marriage on TLN Comcast 138, February 15th, at 9:00pm.
