Emma Lenz is a dynamic communications professional — she knows better than most how organizations craft a message. So when the Christian youth organization she'd spent years believing in started getting called out for the gap between what they said and what they did, Emma couldn't look away.
Emma came to faith with no church background. What followed was years of real questions, a Christian college, working at a church, and eventually a staff role at a well known national youth organization she deeply believed in.
Then the stories started coming out — queer students who'd been welcomed in, until they wanted to lead.
In this episode, Emma shares what it cost her to say I can't put my name on this — and what it looks like to still hold onto faith after the institution lets you down.
Faith Rehab is a podcast about church hurt, healing, and rebuilding faith.
We create a safe space for honest conversations about spiritual disappointment, doubt, and the process of finding hope again—without pretending or having all the answers.
Co-hosts: Steve McNitt, Heidi Brandt & CJ Mateo
