Description: Bring a dish and share a potluck lunch while watching an engrossing film dealing with families just like yours who must explore the perceived conflict between homosexuality and religion and differing interpretations of same-sex sexuality from the Bible and respective ministers. Special guest Dr. Sharon Groves, Deputy Director of Religion and Faith at HRC (Human Rights Campaign) will be our guest moderator for a short, but vital discussion following the viewing of the film. Sharon, a lay leader of All Souls Church, Unitarian, in Washington, D.C., co-wrote a study guide for the viewing of this film along with Rev. Chris Glazer. We are honored to have Sharon with us and invite you to enjoy a short biography of her at http://www.hrc.org/about_us/13087.htm
