Direct quotes from school policy documents:

“We believe that God wonderfully and immutably created each person as distinctly male or female. These two distinct and complementary sexes together reflect the image and nature of God. To reject one's biological sex is a rejection of the image of God within that person and is a sin against God.”

“We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and a woman who are married to each other. Any form of sexual intimacy outside of marriage is immoral and is a sin against God. Sexual immorality includes, but is not limited to adultery, fornication, homosexual conduct, and pornography.”
