Not Many Mighty | Pastor Jimmy Proulx: Holding On to the Call
What keeps a pastor going when ministry gets hard?
In this episode of Not Many Mighty, Stan sits down with Pastor Jimmy Proulx of Pleasant Hill Congregational Christian Church in Roberta, Georgia, to talk about the calling that has carried him through every season of ministry.
Jimmy shares his testimony of coming to faith as a teenager, the unexpected path that led him into pastoral ministry, planting a church in his living room, navigating the heartbreak of seeing that church eventually close, and the joy of faithfully serving where God has called him today.
Along the way, Stan and Jimmy have an honest conversation about the realities of pastoral life:
- Why a clear calling is essential for enduring difficult seasons.
- The privilege and weight of preaching God's Word faithfully.
- The importance of making disciples—not just filling church seats.
- What Bible colleges often don't teach future pastors.
- Encouragement for the next generation of ministry leaders.
Whether you're a pastor, ministry leader, or simply someone who wants to better understand the heart behind faithful shepherding, this conversation offers wisdom, encouragement, and a refreshing reminder that God delights in using ordinary people for extraordinary Kingdom work.
"Consider your calling, brothers... Not many were wise by human standards; not many were powerful; not many were of noble birth..." — 1 Corinthians 1:26
