Menfolk Journeys
This podcast explores how different men from all walks of life wear the beautiful and confusing mantle of manhood.
Men can be knuckleheads in public life. But in private, if given the right questions and if they feel comfortable, men can also be thoughtful, reflective, and have deep conversations about their lives, big questions, and meaningful ideas.
We have great conversations with men just like us and from all walks of life, so we can learn from their personal stories and all get better together.
Menfolk Journeys
39. Rand and A Spiritual Passage
This is a conversation about an epic man's journey from poverty to salvation.
From time immemorial, we have spoken about the Hero going into the Wilderness, about facing the ghosts that haunt us, about finding Grace in the moments of our darkest despair.
This is a story of such a hero. Rand Timmerman was born into a life where he felt "doomed to poverty," and found a path out by serving as a combatant in the Vietnam War.
And the demons and ghosts haunted him through alcohol...until he persevered, rose up from the depths, and came out, whole, and through his own Spiritual Passage.
