A dedicated firefighter for over 30 years, Kelvin Cochran was fired from his position as fire chief for the City of Atlanta. Why? Because a book he wrote, calling Christian men to fulfill their God-given role as husbands and fathers, briefly mentions the clear biblical teaching that sex is reserved for marriage between a man and a woman.
But on October 15, 2018, the city of Atlanta agreed to pay Chief Kelvin Cochran $1.2 million in the wake of a December 2017 court ruling that the city unconstitutionally discriminated against his views.
Chief Cochran was represented by Alliance Defending Freedom.
