My initial calling was to pastoral ministry...I'm very grateful to the fact that some people will give their time, talent and treasure to help us do the work that god's called us to do, and that is really important- that attitude of gratitude.
Imagine dedicating over two decades to faith-based non-profit work and then finding a new calling in donor relations. That's the story of Reverend Bob Evans, who has been with Guiding Light for nearly ten years. As a Donor Relations Specialist, Bob acts as the bridge between generous supporters and the organization, expressing deep gratitude for their contributions. But Bob's role extends beyond just donor relations; he's also a Bible teacher and records weekly devotionals aimed at those in addiction recovery.
In this episode, Bob shares his personal journey from pastoral ministry to his current role, emphasizing the importance of gratitude and giving in the recovery process. He recounts the parable of the woman who gave all she had, illustrating that the spirit of giving is more important than the size of the gift. Through his heartfelt stories and reflections, Bob inspires listeners to give back to their communities and consider becoming ongoing donors at Guiding Light.
Tune in to hear how gratitude and giving can make a profound impact on recovery.
