Episode 5: Interview with Rev. Tim Costello AO

Some people dedicate their lives to a single cause. Mr. Tim Costello AO has spent his life standing up for the people and issues that too many ignore.

As a lawyer, pastor, former mayor, and the longtime CEO of World Vision Australia, Mr. Costello has been on the frontlines of some of the world’s most urgent social challenges - fighting for gambling reform, advocating for refugees, addressing poverty, and leading global humanitarian efforts. He’s worked in war zones, disaster sites, and right here in Australia, challenging powerful industries and policies that put profit over people.

But what makes Mr. Costello’s story so compelling isn’t just the scale of his work - it’s the conviction behind it. In this conversation, we talk about what shaped his journey, the resistance he’s faced, and what it really takes to stand for something, even when it comes at a cost.

If you've ever grappled with hope and fear, this episode is for you.
