Chad and Angel Dinkel’s lives are a testament to transformation, faith, and a deep love for others. Since God radically changed their lives in the early 2000s, they have been dedicated to addiction ministry, tirelessly rescuing and restoring the broken and hurting. Their passion was sparked by recognizing the immense value in people, even when they feel stuck in life’s hardest places.

For years, Chad and Angel played a key role in growing New Beginnings, the addiction ministry at Healing Place Church in Baton Rouge. In 2015, they founded Restoring Purpose Ministries to empower those battling addiction. Three years later, they planted Purpose Church, a beacon of hope for the Baton Rouge community.

Married for over 20 years and devoted parents to Brody and Abram, Chad and Angel have walked alongside countless families in their darkest moments, offering guidance, hope, and the belief in healing and redemption. Their passion for Jesus and people continues to inspire others to embrace God’s purpose for their lives. Their unwavering faith and love have transformed lives and left a lasting impact.

Chad’s motto, never throw a person away, has driven him every day as he seeks to go after the ones who are considered lost causes, often forgotten by their families with little hope of redemption. He believes even the most impossible cases are worth fighting for.

Chad and Angel Dinkel live in Baton Rouge with their two sons. They are thankful to serve those who are hurting, bound and addicted, and hope to continue their efforts in an expanded territory as they fight against lives being destroyed by addiction and poor life choices.
