The Church’s conservative groups do not recognize Sara as female and challenge her fitness and eligibility to be a pastor. In addition, it is crucial to Sara’s success that she has support from friends and family. The documentary explores the way in which alternative lifestyles and permanent choices of identity have the power to tear a family completely to pieces, only to bind it back together again, more closely but differently, than it has ever been before.Thy Will Be Done highlights that point of tension where gender, family relationships and faith intersect as contextualized in the Presbyterian Church in particular, and in the broader religious community in general. At issue is the organized Christian Church, with all its political and financial power, as one of the fiercest battlegrounds for LGBT rights and gender recognition. And as for Sara, she actively seeks not only to participate in the Ministry as an openly transgendered person, but as an activist she seeks to transform a world – spiritual and otherwise – that operates by conventional notions of sex and gender. Sara’s journey weaves an absorbing story of struggle, hope, and the celebration of the human spirit. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Gender Identity|zUnited States. 650 0 Transsexuals|xFamily Relationships|zUnited States. 650 0 Christian transsexuals. 655 7 Documentary films.|2lcgft 700 1 Bouvrie, Alice |efilm director. 710 2 Kanopy (Firm) 856 40 |uhttps://naperville.kanopy.com/node/144895|zAvailable on Kanopy 856 42 |zCover Image|uhttps://www.kanopy.com/node/144895/external -image
