Few of us have ever won a National Championship, and fewer still have won something as large as the Super Bowl. On this Episode of the Back 9, we introduce you to Pastor Tim Johnson, someone who has done both of those things, and yet neither stands as his largest accomplishment. Most recently, Tim embedded himself in one of the most violent sections of one of America’s harshest prisons, to execute a mission of redemption to provide hope for some of the inmates, and has a forthcoming documentary that documents that experience.

In this episode you’ll hear how through one encounter from his childhood, Tim discovered the extraordinary impact that can be made from a single conversation. He shares that story and discusses the power he found in dedicating himself to mentorship and faith. It’s an episode full of honesty and humor that invites us to look beyond ourselves to consider the legacies we are building and the difference we can make in the lives of others. So join in for a full plate spirituality on this episode of the Back 9.
