I had to look this up but In fact we have! First in ‘58 then again in ‘79. Presiding Bishop Edmond Browning even sent a statement to congress and the president in ‘90 reaffirming our anti-death penalty stance. It’s fascinating stuff from a church nerd perspective and def encouraging in this moment.

Yes, we absolutely have! We’re just not great at organizing around our approved convention resolutions or at providing authoritative moral guidance in our congregations…
