May 21, 2025

In the final episode of Season 1, Shawn sits down with the one and only Tim Thompson. During their time together, Tim opens up about his call to ministry and how answering that call looks more different today than ever before. They explore foster care, learning to appreciate the gift of limits, and what being cussed out by a teenager can teach us about the love of God. If you’ve ever taken on more than you can handle, you don’t want to miss this fun, refreshing, and insightful conversation!
