“A Case for Love” film screening at St. Paul’s Oakland

“A Case for Love” film screening at St. Paul’s Oakland

About

Saturday, November 2, 2:00 pm
“A Case for Love” at St. Paul’s Oakland
St. Paul's Episcopal Church, 114 Montecito Ave, Oakland, CA 94610

Featuring Q&A led by director Brian Ide and the Rev. Dr. Mauricio Wilson, St. Paul’s rector.

Please join us for a special viewing of “A Case for Love,” a heartfelt yet personally challenging movie inspired by the teachings and writings of Presiding Bishop Michael Curry, most well-known for his passionate sermon about “The Power of Love” at the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

This film team examines whether or not love–specifically unselfish love–is the solution to the extreme societal and political divide facing the U.S. In the documentary, the film team travels across the country interviewing everyday people from various walks of life and ethnicities, striving to live their lives selflessly.

Stories include racial justice, the military, foster care, sexual trafficking, love and loss and others as well-known figures including Pete Buttigieg, Al Roker, Sam Waterston, Becca Stevens, Russell Moore, John Danforth, John Clyburn, Kelly Brown Douglas, and Jon Meacham weigh in on the issue. Ultimately, Bishop Michael Curry puts what we’ve seen into context.

What’s the verdict on “A Case for Love?” Come watch and decide for yourself.
