This Is What Love In Action Looks Like extended preview coming 2010!

Extended preview for the feature length documentary "This Is What Love In Action Looks Like", due out in 2010. In the summer of 2005 a 16yo Memphis, TN wrote on his MySpace blog about his parents sending him to a "Fundamentalist Christian" program that claimed to offer "Freedom from homosexuality". What followed is a modern day message in a bottle, as teens in the local community stood up for their friend with daily protests which eventually grew to include a huge plethora of individuals demonstrating at the facility in what would become an international news story. The documentary features several former clients of the organization who tell their personal stories about the time they spent within the programs walls, including exclusive never before seen interviews with several teenagers who were forced into the "Refuge" program.

The documentaries producers intent was to show the passion and conviction of both sides of such a strong debate, however, countless attempts to interview Love In Action officials, and their wider network of affiliates were continuously denied, unfortunately thwarting our wishes to allow them to tell their personal stories in detail :-(

The documentary will premiere in 2010.

DESTRUCTIVE LIFESTYLE?!?!?!? i don't think...i've DESTROYED ANYTHING since i was 3yo and i was DESTROYING the toilet paper rolls with my puppy, Hunter.

@MIKECNW I don't know if he has or not but I think it is likely, his dad reminds me of my dad and he seem to only be concerned about his child's happiness and health. When Zach brings home a good boy he is in love with and they see how happy he is, they will change there minds. His dad was not a religious fanatic saying its wrong because the bible says so, he has just bought into the anti gay propaganda and has never had experiences that tell him that propaganda is a lie.

Had to eat after they mentioned BBQ, did not make it all the way through.

If you judge a fish by it's ability to climb a tree-it will spend it's whole life thinking it is stupid. Not Love, but more accurately: Hate In Action. ExGay is a lie. Only bisexuals can chose to live in a heterosexual marriage, not gays. Gays are supposed to be celibate, according to Love in Action. The world has yet to see a truly gay person who has "transformed" into a truly straight person. Or vice-versa for that matter.

Mechanic Rule No. 1: If it ain't broke, don't fix it...

[TrevorBlack79]

There's nothing wrong with being gay - you can't fix what isn't broken.

@Carazon - Don't mind Outlaw, who's also one of those diehard conspiracy theorists...if you ask me, he probably got the whole "homosexuality is bad" thing via hidden messages in his rice pudding.

Zach, you are a brave man. God loves us like we are. Thanks a lot for be an example for us!
