After a powerful encounter with God as a teenager, a long season of wandering, and a roadside moment of surrender, his life took a turn few could have predicted.
In this episode, you’ll hear the powerful testimony of a man who found his way back to God—not through a pulpit, but through a broom, a backhoe, and a lifetime of sacrificial service. For nearly three decades, he labored behind the scenes at the church—mowing lawns, cleaning toilets, building, repairing, serving wherever he was needed.
Through accidents, hardship, and physical pain, he remained faithful. And when asked if he’d do it again, his answer was simple:
“I’d do it all again. I’d just try to do it better.”
This is the story of humble obedience, steady devotion, and the kind of quiet faith that leaves a legacy.
