A good community is hard to find. After 37 years of factory work, 3 years of retirement, mental health struggles, a life in and out of the church, Gary Clague believes he has found one in Downtown Disciples. Brad Wilson (episode 36) does the interview and Pastor Emily joins for scripture. downtowndisciples.org @DTdisciplesDSM

Episode 58: Knit Together

Like Micah brings you stories about the intersection of Progressive Christianity, social justice, and lived experience. For those who have been hurt by the church, struggle with the church, still hold out hope for the church, or have no experience with the church at all; we welcome you to share in our journey of questioning, loving, and seeking wholeness in a fragmented world. This is the podcast of Downtown Disciples, an unapologetically progressive Disciples of Christ community in downtown Des Moines, Iowa. We are LGBTQ affirming and we proclaim #BlackLivesMatter. www.downtowndisciples.org
