Film Screening - 1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture

Occuring
for 1 hour, 30 mins
Venue
St Bride's
Address
Percy Street Liverpool, L8 7LT, United Kingdom

1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture is a feature documentary that follows the story of tireless researchers who trace the origins of the anti-gay movement among Christians to a grave mistranslation of the Bible in 1946. It chronicles the discovery of never-before-seen archives at Yale University which unveil astonishing new revelations, and casts significant doubt on any biblical basis for LGBTQIA+ prejudice. Featuring commentary from prominent scholars as well as opposing pastors, including the personal stories of the film’s creators, 1946 is at once challenging, enlightening, and inspiring.

In the lead up to Liverpool Pride join us for a screening of this film at St Bride's. Entry by donation

St Bride's

St Bride’s is the Church of England’s Parish Church for the University and Canning area of Liverpool. We are committed to a vision of faith which is creative in worship, progressive in thought and inclusive of everyone. We’re offering something radically different from most mainstream churches. Come and join us!

We meet for worship every Sunday at 10am except on the last Sunday of the month which is a joint service rotating around the churches in our team. In March this will be at St Michael in the City at 11.15am; in April here at St Bride's as usual (with our Annual Meeting); and in May at St Dunstan's at 10am.

We also have a rotating programme of evening services. Please sign up for our e-news using the button at the bottom of our website homepage to be kept up to date: St Bride's Liverpool (stbridesliverpool.org.uk)

Weddings, Christenings and Funerals can be booked here when the church is not in use by other groups, and can also be hosted at our sister church St Dunstan's, so please do get in touch  if you would like to arrange one of these - either come along to a service and say hello, or email [email protected].

The church can be booked for regular groups or some one-off events; please be in touch with our bookings administrator Jackie on [email protected] to enquire about a booking. Please leave plenty of time for bookings!
