True Believer Screening
August 10 @ 4:00 pm – 7:30 pm
Get ready to dive deep into the world of “True Believer” with a special screening and discussion that will leave you feeling inspired!
Welcome to the “True Believer” Screening with Panel Discussion event! Join us at the Pacific Coast Center for Spiritual Living for a screening of “True Believer” on Saturday, August 10, at 4:00 PM, followed by a discussion.
For over 40 years, the Religious Right in the US has proclaimed a patriarchal, anti-LGBTQ gospel, from cross-engraved-pulpits to bunting-laced podiums. “True Believer” explores the origins of this movement, weaving together the larger political intentions at play with Kristen Irving’s story of her own experience within a family deeply committed to their evangelical community. Kristen’s personal story will resonate with many persons who have either found their way out of the evangelical church or have become deeply uncomfortable within it. The details about how this movement was launched will be revealing for many who assume that it was simply a grassroots movement, or “a work of the Spirit.”
“TRUE BELIEVER” presents a rare insight into the generations of American foot soldiers who have been trained as a Christian army that currently threatens our fraying democracy.”
