Christian Voice (CV) is a fundamentalist Christian advocacy group based in the United Kingdom.[1] Its stated objective is "to uphold Christianity as the Faith of the United Kingdom, to be a voice for Biblical values in law and public policy, and to defend and support traditional family life."[2] It is independent of religious, denominational, or political parties.[3]

CV is led by Stephen Green.[3] Green is the group's spokesperson, producing scores of press releases from 2005 to 2010. According to Green, Christian Voice had in excess of 600 members in 2005.[4]

The group has been criticised for its positions. David Peel, leader of the United Reformed Church called Christian Voice "a disgrace"[4] and described their "claim to represent Christians" in the UK as "absurd".[5]
