What if your greatest impact came from the darkest places?

In this deeply human conversation, Steve Ramona welcomes Troy, a man whose calling took him behind prison walls not as an inmate, but as a chaplain and mentor. What began as playing basketball with inmates transformed into a seven-year journey of prison ministry, restoration, and raw redemption. Through the EPIC Framework™, we explore how Troy stepped into a world most avoid, carrying light, purpose, and the love of Jesus into spaces others had given up on.

Troy isn’t just a chaplain. He’s a foster father, a business owner, and a man of deep compassion who walked into Colorado’s prison system to offer more than sermons—he offered presence, purpose, and community. His story takes us from crowded cell blocks to quiet moments of connection, from helping inmates come to Christ to building support systems for their release. Alongside his wife, he embraced ministry with incarcerated mothers and even adopted a child born into the system, guided by God’s unmistakable hand.

This episode breaks stereotypes and ignites hope. We uncover the overlooked reality that the hardest part of prison is often what comes after, when inmates step into freedom with no one to catch them. Troy reveals how discipleship, jobs, housing, and unwavering support can rewrite someone’s future. And through it all, we witness the transforming power of faith, obedience, and second chances.

For anyone who’s wondered how to turn brokenness into beauty or how business and ministry can merge to heal the world, this story will stir your soul.

P.S. If you’ve ever doubted the impact one person can make, listen to how Troy helped a man go from homeless and imprisoned to owning his own home—all by walking in the Spirit, stacking small decisions, and believing in something greater.
