Christian College Fires Gay Soccer Coach Over Social Media Posts

Geneva College, a Christian college in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, has reportedly fired a gay soccer coach for Instagram posts she made, the Beaver County Times reported Thursday.

Kelsey Morrison, who is gay, took over the college’s soccer program in 2021, according to the outlet. She says she was aware of the school’s stance on homosexual and LGBT issues.

After making several posts about LGBT issues on her social media, she says it was “a complete shock” when the school fired her.

“Following the teaching of the College’s controlling denomination, Geneva holds that intimate sexual behavior outside of male-female marriage, whether with a same-sex or opposite-sex partner, is wrong,” the school’s handbook reads.

“The College will not discipline someone for having and/or revealing that he or she has feelings of same-sex attraction,” the handbook continues.
