Religion and Homosexuality: A Match Made in Heaven

January 11, 2009

PBS/Logo documentary series In The Life is covering religion and sexuality this month. In the 26 minute episode, host Michael Bobby covers the issue from a variety of angles, beginning with a look at the ex-gay industry and groups like Beyond Ex-Gay with commentary from Soulforce co-founder Rev. Dr. Mel White and others.

Then Rabbi Sharon Kleinbaum and Bishop Gene Robinson, two prominent religious leaders in the LGBT community, discuss faith, religion, politics, and their spiritual journeys.

Finally, Parvez Sharma’s 2007 film A Jihad for Love shines a light on homosexuality in relation to Islam.
