The Gen Z Series: (10) Do I really need the church to follow Jesus?

“Do I actually need church to follow Jesus… or can I just do faith on my own?” It’s one of the most honest, and most common, questions Gen Z is asking right now. Maybe you’ve been hurt by church. Maybe it feels irrelevant. Maybe online sermons feel easier. Or maybe you just wonder, Is showing up even necessary? If you love Jesus but feel unsure about the church, you’re not alone. In this episode, my cohost and I open the Bible and look at what Jesus actually says about His plan for the church, and why faith was never meant to be lived alone. We talk about the purpose of Christian community, what the church is supposed to look like (and what it’s not), and how to take a next step toward healing and finding a healthy church home. If you’ve ever wrestled with church, felt disappointed, or wondered where you belong, this conversation is for you. Let’s figure it out together. Preorder my book All Your Life here.
