Ep. 167 - Rand Timmerman: Redemption on the Appalachian Trail

Beware: This conversation includes a discussion of alcoholism and suicide.

At 72, most people are slowing down. But for Rand Timmerman, life’s greatest challenge — and greatest healing — came on a 2,000-mile trek through the Appalachian Mountains. A Marine, lawyer, and recovering alcoholic, Rand set out with his 71-year-old brother to walk, reflect, and rediscover what really matters. This is a story about endurance, faith, and the long road home.
