CHURCH VERIFICATION

What a BAD verified church badge means—and does not mean.

A verified badge means BAD reviewed evidence that the person making the claim has a legitimate connection to that church or that the listing information was independently checked. It does not mean BAD endorses every sermon, doctrine, leader, financial decision, or ministry practice.

BAD does not rank churches by political ideology, candidate support, or partisan identity. Listings may include practical information such as denomination, location, languages, accessibility, service times, children/youth information, website, and contact information.
