Episode Synopsis

Send us a textOn this episode of Courageous Crossroads, Jeff Johnson sits down with Tyler Tompkins—former police lieutenant, real estate entrepreneur, and board member of Exodus 51, a nonprofit that rescues Christian slaves in Pakistan. Born and raised in small-town Iowa, Tyler shares how his path from farming and law enforcement to international human rights work was shaped not by a single moment of courage, but by a long series of faithful yeses. With raw honesty, he opens up about wrestling with church hurt, rediscovering faith, and finding purpose in uncomfortable places. From riding solo as a rookie cop to freeing over 13,000 slaves overseas, Tyler reveals how courage often looks like showing up, stepping out, and trusting God with the unknown.Thank you for listening!
