Pray Away, a new documentary coming to the streamer on August 3. The film takes a look at the history of Exodus International.The Christian evangelical organization was formed in the 1970s and claimed to be able to help gay and trans people to be straight and cisgender.
It shuttered in 2013. Many of those involved with the organization were LGBTQ and claimed that prayer had helped them lead a straight life.“In the 1970s, five men struggling with being gay in their Evangelical church started a Bible study to help each other leave the ‘homosexual lifestyle,’” says a promotional statement for Pray Away.
