[ep 102] Dr. Carmen Joy Imes is professor of Old Testament at Prairie College in Three Hills, Alberta. Her passion is to help Christians reconnect with the Old Testament and rediscover its relevance for today. She is the author of Bearing God’s Name: Why Sinai Still Matters (IVP, 2019), which is based on her published dissertation, Bearing YHWH’s Name at Sinai: A Reexamination of the Name Command of the Decalogue (Eisenbrauns, 2018). Carmen is currently working on a commentary on Exodus for Baker Academic and a prequel to Bearing God’s Name entitled Being God’s Image. She regularly insists that she has the #BestJobInTheWorld. When she’s not teaching or writing, she enjoys reading, camping, hiking, and playing games with her family — preferably all in the same day.

On today’s episode Carmen Imes talks about the Old Testament. I think a lot of times people are intimidated by the Old Testament and don’t really know what to do with it. There are so many genres of literature and some downright awkward things in there. Carmen talks about the need for understanding and loving the Old Testament. We get into a lot of great stuff in today’s episode. We talk women in ministry, biblical theology, and liminal space. I highly encourage you to check out her book. She does an incredible job of tracing Sinai throughout the entirety of the Bible. You will gain such valuable insight into Scripture as a whole in the episode.
