The Calling: Meet John Purdue

Following the call to switch from banking to leading others in faith & ministry.

All across the Upper Cumberland, there are everyday people who are lead to do more than everyday things.

John Purdue grew up in the college town of Lexington, Kentucky where he could ride his bike right into the campus of the University of Kentucky, and most of his neighbors were professors. Inspired by his experiences at church camp growing up, God led him to eventually make the switch from a career in banking to following the call to ministry. He joins Denna Hornby to share his story, and how he made the move from Kentucky to becoming the Senior Pastor at First United Methodist Church of McMinnville.
