The assertion that on one hand we have science and the other hand we have the belief in Genesis, as if the two are incompatible is a total fallacy. Genesis belief is not anti-scientific, nor does it reject genuine scientific inquiry. It merely starts from a different paradigm and so gets different results.

So, in returning to the question, many Christians also do not believe in the Big Bang, along with a growing number of non or even anti- Christian evolutionary scientists.

Many Christians having been educated that the Big Bang is fact have never seen the scientific evidence which is accumulating against it. Nor have they ever seen any Creationist physics. They thus accept the Big Bang because they believe they have no other choice as not to except it makes them look sub-human or anti-intellectual. Well Christ preached about having and open mind and seeking out the truth. So, if someone claimed to be a Christian that didn't believe in the Big Bang, the would be a hypocrite (hypocrisy of course being sinful). Too many Christians get worked up by the debate of young earth creationist Vs. Old earth creationism that they forgot what is the most important thing about our Christian faith. Which is the gospel of Jesus is the Christ, and that he is our Lord and savior. In other words, they build their faith on their belief that the earth is 6000 years old or billions of years old, instead of building their faith on Jesus Christ.

But if you must know if Christian believe the Big Bang theory, then the answer is that a lot of Christians think the Big Bang theory is a valid, scientifically proven model that has a lot of Christian implications, because the model predicts that the universe had a beginning.

As for Christians saying that the Big Bang theory is based on Naturalist philosophy, they are wrong! The Big Bang theory actually has a Catholic/Christian root because it was proposed by a catholic priest Monsignor Georges Lemaitre. In the past, many atheist scientists have been trying to prove that the Big Bang is wrong because they don't like the implication that the theory predicts the universe had a beginning (therefore, pointing towards a supernatural creator who started the big bang).
