Listen "Charles McCoy - A One-Way Ticket of Faith"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textWhat happens when your greatest hopes don’t come true?In this episode, Stephen Davey opens Romans 15:22–28 and explores the heart of the apostle Paul, who longed to preach in Spain but never arrived. Even though Paul planned carefully and prayed faithfully, God had a different path. Instead of reaching Spain as a missionary, Paul arrived in Rome as a prisoner. Yet he never lost hope or surrendered his faith.Stephen connects Paul’s story with the inspiring life of Dr. Charles McKoy—a 72-year-old pastor who, upon forced retirement, booked a one-way ticket to India and spent the last 16 years of his life preaching the gospel across Asia. From Bombay to Calcutta, Dr. McKoy’s faith led him to open doors he never dreamed of walking through.This episode challenges you to surrender your own plans and expectations to God. Whether you’re young and dreaming or older and discouraged, the question isn’t where you’ll go—but whether you’ll go with God.Stephen reminds you that disappointment doesn’t mean defeat. You may never reach your “Spain”—but you can still leave behind a legacy of faith.Support the showDiscover more wisdom from God's Word: https://www.wisdomonline.org
