Promoting a Culture of Belonging
Highly Reccommended
I highly reccommend this movie!
Having been raised Catholic, I know many people (myself included) who think it is nearly impossible for the Chuch to change.
This film highlights a vey real effort to bring change to the Church - and to its members. It is really worth seeing, for the personal outreach efforts that hopefully will bear fruit in the near future.
And the approach is balanced - it not only speaks to changes the church can make, but also how the LGBTQ community can work with the church.
I have heard Fr. Martin speak on this topics sevearl times, and the film is a valuable tool to spead the message more widely than just his personal appearances. And of couse it is a good companion to the book of the same title.
