30th ANNIVERSARY EDITION
Bobby Griffith was an all-American boy … and he was gay. Faced with an irresolvable conflict—for both his family and his religion taught him that being gay was “wrong”—Bobby chose to take his own life.
Prayers for Bobby, nominated for a 1996 Lambda Literary Award, is the story of the emotional journey that led Bobby to this tragic conclusion. But it is also the story of Bobby’s mother, a fearful churchgoer who first prayed that her son would be “healed,” then anguished over his suicide, and ultimately transformed herself into a national crusader for gay and lesbian youth.
As told through Bobby’s poignant journal entries and his mother’s reminiscences, Prayers for Bobby is at once a moving personal story, a true profile in courage, and a call to arms to parents everywhere.

It breaks my heart to think about Bobby, who died without those he loved understanding or accepting him for who he really was. There should be no reason for Jesus Christ to exclude someone from heaven because of their sexual orientation.
First and foremost, no one chooses to be born gay, heterosexual, or anything else. Being born gay is God's choice, not a human choice, and is in no way the result of sin. It is not something that must be forgiven, just like being heterosexual.
Jesus Christ, who taught and practiced love, compassion, and tolerance,would loves and accepts all sexual orientations equally. It is tragic that religious authorities speak of their own rightousness in the name of God and that some people end up believing it. Absolute rightousness is God's rightousness, not the rightousness of those who believe it.
A heartbreaking yet hopeful documentary
