In this episode of For a Purpose, we sit down with Jimmy McLoud, Lead Pastor at First Christian Church in Canton, Ohio, and board member of The Solomon Foundation. Jimmy shares his unexpected journey into ministry leadership—from a “random” visit to a church building that led to 12 years on staff, to stepping into the role of lead pastor during a season of transition.
We explore the growth of First Christian’s thriving special needs ministry, the lessons Jimmy learned moving from executive pastor to lead pastor, and the powerful stories of restoration, healing, and hope happening within the church. If you’re interested in church leadership, culture, or what it looks like to faithfully follow God’s call, even when it’s uncomfortable, this episode will inspire and challenge you.
