"I was in the kitchen and this Audible Voice said I was to build a nonprofit restaurant. ‘There are many good people in the world, but they're not coming to my churches. They go out to eat. And I will show you things to draw them back to me.’”

“If you build it, he will come.” That iconic line from Field of Dreams echoes through the remarkable story of Karen Homan, a farmer’s wife in rural Ohio who, like the fictional farmer Ray, in Iowa, heard a voice that didn’t make any earthly sense. Only this voice wasn’t about baseball—it was about opening a restaurant. A nonprofit restaurant.

Karen, with no restaurant experience, rejected the voice which told her to build a restaurant “Because people don’t come to church anymore to hear My word—but they all go to restaurants.” What followed is as wild and Spirit-led as anything out of Field of Dreams.

In rural Osgood, Ohio, Karen opened the Do Good Restaurant, where food is served with love, and faith. Volunteers showed up. Donations poured in. And lives were changed.

In this episode, you’ll hear how God is reaching people not through stained glass, but through comfort food and the Holy Spirit. People will come, Karen. People will most definitely come. Enjoy the episode!
