Epiphany : a Christian's change of heart & mind over same-sex marriage / by Coren, Michael,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Michael Coren has had a profound spiritual and personal change of heart. Epiphany is about how and why that happened; the reaction from both sides of the fence; and how the Christian doctrine, when studied closely and without bias, heartily supports Michael's findings. As a middle-aged, very white, very straight, very Christian man, he was obliged, first reluctantly and then eagerly, to explore the complex dynamic between faith and homosexuality and to work out a new narrative. The crux of that narrative: God is love. Honest, brave, and rigorous in its scholarship, Epiphany is a groundbreaking book on one of society's most pressing issues."--Provided by publisher.

A Happy Man. by G., Soňa,film director.; First Run Features (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by First Run Features in 2023.In this longitudinal observation, director and social anthropologist Soňa Lutherová presents an intimate portrait of a family in which one of the parents is transitioning. People who knew "R" perceived her as a happy woman. A Czech woman in her thirties, she moved to Sweden with her husband, psychiatrist Ivan. In their new country, the young couple bought a house and had two children. It seemed that their lives would continue in a predictable way. As a distraction from the routine, "R" chose an unusual hobby: she created a male alter-ego and started writing novels for LGBTQ+ audiences. "R" was happy but felt empty on the inside. She could only fill it by living out her true self. Things started speeding up and "R" began changing. "R" is now Marvin. And Marvin is a man. A HAPPY MAN tells an intimate story about a transgender man and his family. It encourages the viewers to consider different existential connections that concern each and every one of us.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Orlando, My Political Biography. by B., Paul,film director.; The Criterion Collection (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by The Criterion Collection in 2023.“Come, come! I’m sick to death of this particular self. I want another.” Taking Virginia Woolf’s novel Orlando: A Biography as his starting point, academic virtuoso turned filmmaker Paul B. Preciado fashioned the documentary ORLANDO, MY POLITICAL BIOGRAPHY—a personal essay, historical analysis, and social manifesto. For almost a century, Woolf’s eponymous hero(ine) has inspired readers with their gender fluidity as well as their physical and spiritual metamorphoses across a three-hundred-year span. In making his film, Preciado invited a diverse group of more than twenty trans and nonbinary people to play the role of Orlando and to participate in this shared biography. Together, they perform interpretations of the novel, weaving into Woolf’s narrative their own stories of transition and identity formation. Not content to simply update a groundbreaking work, Preciado interrogates the relevance of Orlando in the ongoing struggle to secure dignity for trans people worldwide.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
