Franklin Graham Decries Wells Fargo Commercial Featuring Lesbian Couple

The Rev. Franklin Graham of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association recently took to social media to encourage fellow Christians to boycott the Wells Fargo bank after the company ran a commercial showing a same-sex couple adopting a child.

The commercial shows two lesbian women learning American Sign Language as they prepare to adopt a child who is deaf.

Franklin Graham, son to evangelist Billy Graham, took to his Facebook page recently to denounce the commercial and encourage Christians to take their business to a different bank.

"Have you ever asked yourself – how can we fight the tide of moral decay that is being crammed down our throats by big business, the media, and the gay & lesbian community?" Graham recently wrote on his Facebook page.

"Every day it is something else! Tiffany's started advertising wedding rings for gay couples. Wells Fargo bank is using a same-sex couple in their advertising. And there are more," he said, adding, "But it has dawned on me that we don't have to do business with them."

"And guess what — we don't have to shop at Tiffany & Co., there are plenty of other jewelry stores," Graham wrote, adding that Christians " have the power of choice."

The head of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association added that his ministry group will now be moving their accounts to a different bank than Wells Fargo.
