Movie Screening “1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture”
May 29 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
A Pride Month Screening & Community Dialogue
StorySpark Collective and Called to Love are honored to host a transformative evening of film and restorative conversation. Join us for a special screening of the award-winning documentary, “1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture.”
About the Film:
1946 follows the journey of tireless researchers who traced the origins of the anti-gay movement back to a specific mistranslation in the 1946 Revised Standard Version of the Bible. Chronicling the discovery of never-before-seen archives, the film challenges deeply held assumptions and opens a new door for understanding and inclusion.
The Experience:
At StorySpark, we believe in the power of stories to heal and create positive social change. Following the screening, we will transition into a curated community space featuring:
- Panel Discussion: Hear from local Christian and LGBTQ+ leaders as they discuss the film’s impact on our local community.
- A Moment of Reconciliation: A public apology from members of the Christian community to the LGBTQ+ community, marking a significant step toward healing historical divides.
- Open Dialogue: An opportunity for attendees to engage in a respectful Q&A focused on building empathy and moving forward together.
Whether you are a member of the LGBTQ+ community, a person of faith, or a neighbor looking to learn, we welcome you to this evening of discovery and bridge-building. Together, we can spark a future where every voice is heard and every person is valued.
