Episode 23: A Conversation with Police Chaplain Wesley Woods
In this episode of "Talk'n the Beat," Officers Larry Reynolds and Kevin Coates sit down with Pastor Wesley Woods, one of the Sterling Heights Police Department's two police chaplains, for an inspiring conversation.
Pastor Woods shares his story of growing up in a rough neighborhood in Detroit, where his parents broadened his horizons by exposing him to a wider world of possibilities. This positive foundation has stayed with him throughout his life and now fuels his mission at Heritage Church to inspire and support others. As a chaplain, Pastor Woods helps officers process the challenging situations they face daily, encouraging healthy coping mechanisms and preventing self-destructive behaviors.
Join us as we explore the invaluable role of police chaplains like Pastor Wesley Woods, who bring compassion, understanding, and spiritual guidance to the Sterling Heights Police Department and the community.
