In this episode, we dive into the heart of Albany, Georgia, where one couple’s simple act of cooking meals in their apartment has grown into a grassroots movement meeting real needs in Dougherty County. From providing food and showers to building relationships and spiritual restoration, this is more than charity — it’s transformation.

The conversation traces how everyday faith has turned into a force for community renewal. With stories of unexpected partnerships, visions for the future, and the real struggles faced by people on the margins, the D646 Project reminds us that small steps can lead to radical impact.

Authenticity First – “Just be who you are. You don’t have to impress anybody.” The mission started with this principle at its core.

Faith in Action – Rooted in Deuteronomy 6, the mission is driven by loving God fully and serving people with the same intensity.

From Apartment to Outreach – Cooking 60 plates at home turned into serving 100+ meals downtown thanks to church partnerships.

More Than Food – Showers, haircuts, and dignity-restoring services became part of the mission’s heartbeat.

Inclusion Builds Transformation – Involving people like Leon, a man once homeless, demonstrates the power of giving ownership and belonging.

The Tension of Faith – Staying close to God in seasons of distance and helping others rediscover His presence.

Big Vision, Simple Faith – Dreaming of a $100,000 community building and believing that “100 people giving $1,000” can make it happen.

Hope in Small Signs – Even watching ants carry a scrap of food becomes a metaphor for building something bigger, step by step.

“If it weren’t for the people in our past, we wouldn’t be where we’re at.”

“It’s about loving people right where they’re at and showing them God’s heart for their life.”

“You’d be surprised — the simple things spark hope in somebody’s life.”

“All because we included him. That’s why transformation happened.”

00:00 – Opening reflections on authenticity and identity.

00:45 – Early sparks of the mission journey.

02:08 – The role of faith and past mentors in shaping the mission.

04:08 – Scaling from cooking at home to partnering with a local church.

05:23 – Beyond food: showers, haircuts, and dignity.

08:01 – Leon’s story: from homelessness to helping lead the outreach.

09:35 – Wrestling with faith in seasons of distance.

10:21 – Casting vision: a new building for the whole community.

11:37 – The “ants and boudin” story — a metaphor for collective action.

The Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP), backed by HUD, is changing lives in South Georgia by addressing barriers to housing before youth become chronically homeless. This episode takes a behind-the-scenes look at how Open Arms:

Helps young people (ages 18–24) with childcare, car repairs, clothing, and job readiness

Provides immediate relief—groceries, hygiene items, clothes, within hours of intake

Partners with Aspire and other sober-living and mental health resources

Meets youth where they are through school liaisons, libraries, hotspots, and community events

Prevents cycles of abuse, trafficking, and generational poverty

Turns crisis into community, offering not just services—but long-term transformation
