ut Here in Kansas, a documentary exploring the relationship between Christians and the gay community, premiered to a sold-out crowd at Roxy’s Downtown on October 11. The short film is about the intersecting lives of three Kansans. There’s physician Burt Humburg, a small-town Kansas kid who realized he was gay as he was winding up his career as an All-American football player, and former pastor Joe Wright, who was instrumental in making gay marriage illegal in Kansas. The film’s director, Adam Knapp, arranged for Humburg and Wright to have a discussion for the first time in nearly 20 years. During filming, Knapp unexpectedly became part of the story.
