The ministry — which believes in pro-life values and that marriage is between one man and one woman — has reportedly maintained two accounts with the bank since 2015.

A Christian ministry claiming it was “debanked” by Bank of America filed a consumer complaint this week to Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti to determine whether their accounts were closed due to religious discrimination.

One of these accounts pertains to the ministry itself, while the second is associated with a Memphis-based church that provides support to the ministry’s initiatives as well as other overseas missions. The ministry’s deposit account had $270,000 at the time before transitioning to another banking company, they said.

Indigenous Ministry founder Steve Happ wrote in the complaint he was left “very confused” as the ministry does not “donate to or otherwise advocate for any political causes, domestic or international.”
