Stay ConnectedBecoming Church is where we explore how the message and movement of Jesus isn’t just about becoming Christians, it’s about becoming The Church the world needs.
Hosted by Kristin Mockler Young, this podcast dives into the surprising ways faith shapes, and is shaped by, our real lives: family, politics, justice, culture, and beyond.

In a world where everyone is divided and beliefs are polarizing, Joey Svendsen has some thoughts to make you think. He will challenge you to embrace the mystery of God over the madness of systematic theology by listening in love instead of cancelling those you don’t fully agree with.
Whether or not you agree with everything he says, this is an episode for people who are willing to join in uncomfortable conversations.

It's never about replacing gathering together but Dave Adamson, author of MetaChurch, has some really compelling reasons for why we should lean in to digital ministry.
Church leaders and pastors need this conversation to better understand why online options are just as important - if not more important - than gathering together physically on Sunday mornings.
Social media teams, Christian influencers and marketing strategists in the digital world will find practical tips and ways to make your online presence better and more effective.
Throw in Dave's Australian accent and great sense of humor and it's an episode you don't want to miss!

Jess Connolly opens up about the spiritual abuse she’s faced and how she’s been able to stay connected to the church. This is not a conversation of platitudes or empty promises but one with real talk of eating disorders and depression, the dark side of being a female in ministry and why so many women chose to run in their calling outside of the church.
If you’re looking for hope, this “carefrontation” is for you. We hope it’s as healing as it may be hard. And if you need help recovering from spiritual abuse, please consider BetterHelp.com or a local therapist in your area.

You’ve seen him running around but let us introduce you to him - it’s Pastor Mike! He helps Mosaic function as it does but did you know that THIS Mosaic wasn’t his original plan? Mike came to Charlotte to start his OWN Mosaic Church and he tells the whole story in this episode. It’s unrelated to him being arrested but that story’s in here, too!
