Episode Details

Timothy Allen is a pastor, prison chaplain of more than 20 years, author of Before the Fall, and the founder of the Romans 10:9 Bible study app. After beginning his career in engineering and the corporate world, Timothy answered a calling into ministry where he has spent decades helping people build a faith that is authentic, resilient, and grounded in Scripture.

In this grounded and encouraging conversation, Timothy shares:

• ​ What his exciting university years in his 20s looked like
• ​ Getting laid off as one of the few Christians at his company
• ​ Learning that feelings don’t always reflect reality with God
• ​ Why faith must be grounded in God’s Word, not emotions
• ​ Being called to preach at 17 but not sent until age 30
• ​ Discovering his message resonates with those who’ve been in trouble
• ​ The difference between head knowledge and heart conviction
• ​ Patterns he’s seen in people who grow spiritually vs. those who drift

If you’re in your 20s building (or questioning) your faith, navigating challenges, or wondering about timing and calling, this episode offers clear, scripture-based wisdom.
