The world’s first openly gay ordained bishop Gene Robinson spent 10 days in Australia in 2013 at the invitation of The Centre for Faith, Life and Learning. The Anglican leader and international human rights champion spoke at Melbourne’s Fed Square, was welcomed in New South Wales parliament, spoke at bible colleges, attended a huge gala dinner with the who’s who of LGBTI rights in Melbourne, spoke on ABC TV, Triple J Radio, and convened a pastoral care day for Christians who had experienced severe homophobia.

Inside Ex-gay Executive Producer and Joy 94.9 presenter Dean Beck met with Bishop Gene to talk about his life, his faith and his passion for LGBTI rights. Enjoy!
