In Episode 21 of the Reimagining podcast, Brian Niece has a conversation with Derrick Scott III about reimagining church. Derrick is the Executive Director of the Campus to City Wesley Foundation. This is Part 1 of a multipart series on Reimagining Church.
What is "church?" Why does church exist? How has it been beneficial and harmful throughout history? How can it change? Why should it change? What does it mean to reimagine church?
These and other questions are what we'll be wrestling with in the multi-part series around Reimagining Church.
