The Loft LA - Progressive Christianity in Podcast Form

The Loft is a progressive Christian community that is unapologetically inclusive. If you're curious about what a socially and politically progressive Christianity looks like, this podcast is for you. There are two podcasts in this feed: our Gatherings and Conversations. The Loft Gathering is the edited audio from our weekly Sunday gathering of people who are interested in following Jesus’ spiritual path of radical compassion. The Loft Conversations is a follow-up podcast that grew out of the conversations taking place during worship at The Loft. Each episode uses themes from our Sunday gatherings as a starting point to further explore the intersections of Christian spirituality, politics, and culture.
