About the event

Today’s sermon is little more than a theatrical rip off of NPR’s Radio show “This American Life’s, 2002 award-winning show titled “81 Words.” “81 Words” both written and read by Alix Spiegel walks us through the very human twists, turns, oddities and quirks of how the American Psychiatric Association (APA) got to the decision in 1973 to remove the 81 words that defined homosexuality as a mental disorder.
