It’s 6:37 AM. In less than 90 minutes, I’ll step into one of the hardest-hit communities in Sierra Leone—armed with a translator, a wad of Leone cash, a borrowed mic, and the Holy Spirit.
This episode is not polished. It’s not planned.
It’s a field note from the middle of a war against Kush—a synthetic drug ravaging Freetown with fentanyl-level devastation for just 25 cents a hit.
And today is our first public strike.
You’ll hear:
- My jumbled, sweaty, half-breathless prep for the event
- What faith actually looks like when you don’t have a plan, just a promise
- A quick prayer, some background on our Safe Freetown Initiative, and the story of Saheed—the former Muslim who just gave his life to Christ on Easter
- And what it’s like to walk into a broken system with nothing but open hands
🔥 Highlights & Timestamps:
- 00:45 – Today’s mission: the first public outreach event for Safe Freetown
- 01:40 – Preparing anonymous feedback cards… with no idea how this will go
- 03:10 – The culture of silence around drug use in Sierra Leone
- 04:15 – What Kush is and why it’s worse than you think
- 05:30 – “We have $7,500 and a mustard seed of faith”
- 06:40 – Saheed’s story: from Muslim culture to Christ on Easter
- 08:10 – Patagonia sling. Wad of cash. No plan but God.
- 09:30 – A closing prayer for surrender, not success
🧠Core Takeaway:
“Today isn’t about strategy. It’s about surrender. If anything powerful happens in Waterloo—it’ll be because God showed up, not because we nailed the plan.”
đź’Ą Context for New Listeners:
- Kush: a dangerous synthetic drug flooding West Africa, often more addictive than fentanyl, costing less than $0.25 USD per hit
- Waterloo, Sierra Leone: the community where today's outreach is taking place
- Mustard Seed Ministries: Zach and Saheed’s Kingdom initiative to fight drug addiction, poverty, and spiritual darkness
- Safe Freetown Initiative: the public-facing campaign that raised ~$7,500 to kickstart action
Crumb Confessional #8 — no polish, no certainty, just a prayer and a walk into the unknown. Let’s see what God does.
