Dr. Carmen Imes — Old Testament scholar, author, and professor at Biola University’s Talbot School of Theology — joins Mark Lanier for a wide-ranging conversation about calling, Scripture, and what it really means to bear the name of God.
In this session, Dr. Imes shares her remarkable journey: from an eight-year-old girl rolling up her sleeves to eat African groundnut stew at a missionary dinner, to a PhD from Wheaton College, to teaching undergraduates to fall in love with the Old Testament.
Along the way, they explore;
• The garden theme woven through the entire Bible — from Eden to Gethsemane to the new creation
• Her “Torah Tuesday” YouTube series — a weekly video commentary walking through the Book of Exodus
• What it really means to “bear God’s name” — and why the third commandment isn’t about swearing
• Women in Scripture — from Mary Magdalene in the garden to Mary sitting at Jesus’ feet
• The mysterious “women who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting” (Exodus 38:8)
• Her forthcoming Exodus commentary in the Baker Commentary on the Old Testament series
• Her children’s book Fierce and Faithful: 25 Women of the Bible Who Dared to Trust God
Whether you’re a seasoned student of Scripture or just curious about how the Old Testament connects to your life today, this conversation will deepen your appreciation for God’s word and His name.
