This is a remastered edition of our listener's favorite episodes — now better than ever! In this episode, Joey sits down with college students Noah Turner and Emma Schilling (neé Taylor) from campus ministries at the University of Missouri in Kansas City. Together, they explore why plugging into a local church is a game-changer for students — and anyone looking to deepen their understanding of what church membership really means.
