"For The Bible Tells Me So" Movie Screening (1/29-1/31)

Does God really condemn loving homosexual relationships? Is the chasm
separating Christianity from gays and lesbians too wide to cross? Is
the Bible an excuse to hate? These questions and more are answered in
this award-winning documentary, which brilliantly reconciles
homosexuality and Biblical scripture – and reveals that religious
anti-gay bias is based almost solely upon a misinterpretation of the
Bible.

Through the experiences of five very normal, Christian, American
families – including those of former House Majority Leader Richard
Gephardt and Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson – we discover how people of
faith handle the realization of having a gay child or family member.
This film features the Reitan family, Mankato residents, who’s son
Jacob came out at Mankato West High School when he was sixteen. Randi
and Phil Reitan will also be on hand to speak to following the movie.
