Episode notes

Restoration is always possible.  

Tim Doyle told God that he would go anywhere and do anything. God’s call brought Tim back to his hometown of St. Joseph, MO.  Last week we covered the beginning of Tim’s surprising thrust into ministry.

Despite losing millions in property and facing personal attacks, Pastor Tim's story highlights themes of resilience, hope, and community impact. From starting over in a disadvantaged part of town to engaging in meaningful city restoration projects and ministering to marginalized groups, the conversation emphasizes the importance of enduring in ministry, relying on the Holy Spirit, and prioritizing family and mental health. The narrative illustrates the transformative power of faith and commitment to serve despite daunting obstacles.
