Leaving It All Behind

Shawn Ellis, the newly-appointed Director of Operations for Hope Channel Canada, opens up about leaving his profitable consulting business to follow a spiritual calling into full-time ministry.

Shawn Ellis’ journey defies conventional success. Once thriving in the corporate world, he began sensing a divine pull toward something more meaningful. In Part 1 of this inspiring interview, Shawn shares how God used a series of personal promptings—and encouragement from his wife—to guide him into pastoral ministry. From preaching to children’s ministries and now serving as Director of Operations for Hope Channel Canada, his story reminds us that the call to serve doesn’t always come with a roadmap, but it always comes with purpose.
