EP. 44: Transforming Neighborhoods Through Love and Service: David and Amy Lancaster and We Will Go Ministries

Living Reconciled

We would love to hear from you! Send us a text message.

Have you ever wondered how service and love can literally transform a neighborhood? David and Amy Lancaster's journey with We Will Go Ministries is a profound example of this transformation in action. Moving into the heart of downtown Jackson, Mississippi, they've turned faith into service, providing everything from food distribution to after-school programs. Their story isn't just about aid; it's about deep connections, sharing love and presence within a community often overlooked.
Throughout our conversation, we uncover the realities of ministry work, including the challenges of aiding those struggling with addiction and the true meaning of discipleship. The Lancasters' dedication to serving their neighbors demonstrates that the most complex problems sometimes need the simplest acts of kindness, sustained over time like the careful chipping away at an oak tree. Volunteers and church members alike learn that service is more than just an act—it's a lifelong commitment that ripples through the fabric of a community.
As we close the episode, the Lancasters remind us that each of us has the power to impact our own corner of the world. Whether it's by donating snacks or reading to a child, these gestures can be incredibly impactful, turning the ordinary into the miraculous. Join us as we celebrate the role of Christians in embodying the reconciliation achieved by Jesus and the joy found in serving others. David, Amy, and co-hosts Brian Crawford and Austin Hoyle are eager to share how small acts can contribute to building God's cathedral, letting light shine through the work of our hands.
