Every once in a while, there is a faith based film that comes down the pike that captures an important moment and message in American culture. In the LGBTQ\/Faith intersection, there have been a number of powerful documentary films that have powerfully captured the tensions between Christians and LGBTQ individuals. But, to my knowledge, there has never been a faith based, feature length film that addresses this tension with the wit, charm, and grace of a feature length \u00a0comedy\u2026. until now.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Filmmaker Kevin O\u2019Brien has written up a beautiful, accurate, and engaging comedy about the tensions LGBTQ Christians face in the world today. As I have read through the screenplay, I have found myself consistently amazed at how well this story captures my experience and the experience of many of the people I work with in this space. More than that, I am so impressed with how Kevin has communicated so many difficult stories and situations with such hilarity and grace.\u00a0The more I read, the more convinced I became that this film\u00a0needs\u00a0<\/em>to come to life.\u00a0 Instead of me gushing over this film for the next 4 paragraphs, take a second to check out this \u201cinfomercial\u201d from Kevin for more details:<\/p>\n

I am truly excited about this project and would love to see it come to fruition. But for that to happen, we need\u00a0your help<\/em>. To produce\u00a0At the End of the Day,\u00a0<\/em>Kevin and his team need to raise at least $75,000. It sounds like a massive amount (and it is) but if all of us who have lived in the midst of this tension- whether in regards to our own faith and sexuality or as an ally to the LGBTQ community- dig deep and sacrificially give to this beautiful project, I am confident that Kevin will create a game-changing film that we all will benefit from.<\/p>\n
