YouTube description

Many Christians today are walking away from church because of disappointment, busyness, or disillusionment. But according to Old Testament scholar Dr. Carmen Joy Imes, the Church isn't just a gathering you attend—it's the family God created you to belong to.

In this conversation, Carmen explores why community has always been central to God's story, from Abraham to Exodus to the early Church. We discuss church hurt, Sabbath, multiculturalism in Scripture, women in ministry, and why individualism may be keeping us from experiencing the fullness of Christian life.

If you've ever questioned the role of church in your faith journey, this conversation is for you.

Topics Covered

✅ Why Exodus matters today
✅ The multicultural story of God's people
✅ Church hurt and staying connected
✅ Individualism vs. biblical community
✅ Sabbath and modern busyness
✅ Women in ministry
✅ Faithfulness in work and leadership
✅ Why the Church still matters

Quote from the Episode

"If your schedule does not have room for church, then something else needs to go on your schedule."
