The LGBTQ+ and the Church: An interview with The Rev. Dr. Marcia Ledford

There is perhaps  no bigger "hotbed" subject within the church today than is the subject of the LGBTQ+ and the church.  As I stated on another recent episode, this is a passion of mine.  Why?  Because I have seen too much trauma, hate, and attacks within the church toward these individuals who just want to love Jesus, serve Him and have a place to belong.  I have taken the time to truly sit down and study the verses others use to "clobber" the community and believe they can easily be interpreted differently than the traditional evangelical way.

In this episode, I have the pleasure of interviewing The Rev. Dr. Marcia Ledford, a civil rights attorney, Episcopal Priest, and the founder of Political Theology Matters, LLC, where she works tirelessly to help the faithful develop public theology mission for greater social justice. 

You will find the show resources below so for now, grab that cup of coffee, have a seat, and let's enjoy this time with Rev. Dr. Marcia Ledford on "Coffee with Keith."
