“Theologians should concentrate less on social arrangements and more on fostering the kind of social agents capable of envisioning and creating just, truthful, and peaceful societies, and on shaping a cultural climate in which such agents will thrive”

Saturday June 14 , 2025
9am-12:30pm
Rochester Christian University

One of the most basic tools we believe each person needs to have in their belt is a "rule of life". If you don't know what a "rule of life" is then maybe this shorter seminar is for you. We will help each person write a personal rule of life and help with focusing ones values and direction of life. Danny will also discuss leadership within a Jesus centered context and how that impacts our rule of life. See ya soon!!!

MOVIE & DISCUSSION

1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture

​

​

​

 

 

 

 

 

"1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture" is a documentary that explores how a translation decision in the Revised Standard Version (RSV) of the Bible published in 1946 may have significantly influenced modern views on homosexuality. The film argues that the word "homosexual" was erroneously introduced into the English Bible in that year, replacing more accurate terms related to abusive or exploitative behaviors. This mistranslation contributed to decades of misunderstanding and discrimination against LGBTQ+ individuals in religious communities. The documentary follows researchers, scholars, and theologians as they investigate this translation choice and its lasting cultural and spiritual impact.

 

​***Discussion to Follow***

 

BONUS: To open up the gathering we will be premiering a brand new video to the song "Not Every Boy is Blue" featuring Hannah Lewis. Hannah will be performing live using her unique art form called a "cranky" to create a scrolling "movie" that mirrors the song journey!
