Pastor and Competitive Surfer - Tim Holt - The Crossover Between Surfing and Surviving in Ministry for the Long Haul

The Ferment Podcast - Conversations About Worship And Transformation

Tim Holt is the founding pastor of Seacoast Vineyard Church in Myrtle Beach, SC and a competitive surfer. He is passionate about evangelism and introducing people to the Jesus he met at a surf competition in 1971. Tim has been married to his wife Karen for 50 years and together they are parents and grandparents.

In this episode of The Ferment, Tim and Adam talk about some big themes, starting with the organic way Tim began doing ministry in the ocean with fellow surfers to becoming a pastor and then returning to ocean ministry, the value of having a life with Jesus outside the church, and the joy and pain involved in retiring from formal ministry and transitioning your church to a new leader. This is a very fluid episode that is full of sweet moments and showcases a life of faithfulness marked by the Holy Spirit.
