Welcome to Ministry is Calling, a podcast series hosted by Olivia Blake, Ministry and Communications Assistant. Throughout this series, we celebrate and reflect on the diverse ways people engage in ministry work by inviting members of our church family to share their personal stories of answering the call.
In this episode, Olivia sits down with Ryan Jones—a beloved First on Fifth member and the creative force behind our church’s social media, video and external communications. Tune in as Ryan shares his journey from growing up in rural Appalachia, to navigating corporate life, launching his own business, and ultimately finding his purpose in serving faith-based communities through media and storytelling.
