Family values? Homosexuality and the Church. "Maybe we're talking about a different God"

Description

Maybe We're Talking About A Different God is the story of the Reverend Jane Adams Spahr, a Presbyterian minister and a lesbian, who was called to serve as pastor of a large metropolitan church in Rochester, New York. Although ninety percent of the congregation voted to approve her as their minister, other Presbyterian churches in the area vehemently protested the appointment and her case was brought before an ecclesiastical court. In documenting that trial, the video reveals the struggle of ordinary people to come to terms with their own difficulties around homosexuality.
