Beyond the ordinary

Speaking & Ministry

Faith. Leadership. Life Lessons from the Arena.

W. Todd Lindsay brings a lifetime of experiences from the ranch, the rodeo arena, the U.S. Navy, public education, leadership, family life, and his personal walk with Jesus Christ.

Todd's message is simple: God can use every part of our story.

For years, Todd has shared stories and lessons with students, educators, cowboys, churches, men's groups, and communities. His messages combine humor, real-life experiences, biblical truth, and the lessons learned from horses, rodeo, leadership, success, failure, family, and faith.

Today, his testimony has taken on an even deeper meaning. Facing Stage 4 cancer has reminded Todd that none of us knows exactly what is written on tomorrow's calendar. But we can decide how we live today.

Todd continues to believe that God has a purpose for every season of life and that our trials do not have to silence our testimony—they can strengthen it.

Many of Todd's messages use stories from the rodeo arena to illustrate biblical truths—because whether you're riding a horse, chasing a steer, leading an organization, raising a family, or facing one of life's biggest battles, eventually you have to answer the same question:

Who has the reins?

From the Gate to the Crown

Todd's testimony is not about having lived a perfect life. It is about discovering God's grace throughout an imperfect one.

From a young cowboy with rodeo dreams, to serving his country, becoming an educator and superintendent, raising a family, competing in professional rodeo, writing books, and now walking through cancer treatment, Todd can look back and see something he didn't always recognize at the time:

God was preparing him all along.

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”

— Proverbs 3:5–6
