42. Rocky Roggio - When Did The Word "homosexuals" Get In The Bible?


Listen Later

The word “homosexual” didn’t find its way into any translations of the Bible until 1946.

This episode we get to talk with Sharon "Rocky" Roggio who is the executive producer and director of “1946 The Movie”, a documentary about when the word homosexuality was first translated into the Bible and how.  Rocky shares some of her story in the entertainment industry and about the personal fortitude, grace and maturity it takes to remember that both the oppressor and the oppressed are victims of bad theology. Then we reimagined 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 and the kind of reality we are living into.
