The pastor who left the church: Meet Josh Lo

Season 4 Episode 3 | 38m 51s

Josh Lo is a husband, father and former pastor at a multi-ethnic, non-denominational Christian church in Southern California. He shares his calling to ministry, his life in the church and how what he witnessed there — the complicated intersection of power and religion — shifted his perspective entirely. He found himself turning away… not from God completely, but from the institution he once lived.

Aired: 06/04/25
Sponsored in part by the Rutland Regional Medical Center and the Vermont Arts Council
