Before coming to Exodus, Chambers served on the pastoral team at Calvary Assembly of God, one of the largest churches in Orlando.
"[8] In July 2012, while appearing on NBC's Hardball, Chambers stated that he always believed the catchphrase "Pray away the gay" to be a lazy stereotype and one that he never used, as it invalidates the nature of the complex issue surrounding homosexuality.
[14] In June 2013, he closed the organization with a public apology to the LGBT community, saying that "For quite some time we’ve been imprisoned in a worldview that’s neither honoring toward our fellow human beings, nor biblical."
He remarked that he will now seek to create "safe, welcoming and mutually transforming communities.”[15] In 2015, Chambers published a book entitled, My Exodus: From Fear to Grace.
[17] Chambers was listed in Charisma magazine as one of the top Christian leaders who represent the future of the American church.
