010 Tim Sheppard - On Fatherhood

Tim Sheppard is a minister, musician, and father who has spent over 40 years leading others in faith and family. A pioneer in early Christian music, Tim chose a life of integration—bringing his family on the road, living out his values in public, and defining success by the depth of connection rather than applause.

In this episode, Tim reflects on the sacred call of fatherhood, the tension between gifting and responsibility, and how becoming a parent reshaped his relationship with God. He shares how names carry meaning, why legacy is built in small, consistent moments, and how spiritual leadership often starts at home.

The conversation explores faith, identity, family, and what it means to carry both calling and tenderness over a lifetime.
