In this episode, Joe talks to Sharon "Rocky" Roggio from the 1946 Movie.
If you are unaware of this documentary, it dives in to the mistranslation that led to the word homosexual being inserted into the Bible in 1946. Joe talks to Rocky about how she came upon the idea, the reason her story with her dad is featured, how people can help with the ongoing project and so much more.
Rocky's energy and passion for this work is infectious and you will walk away feeling encouraged, not only by her but by the work.
