Summary

If you’ve ever wondered whether your life could have an eternal impact, this conversation will open your eyes to what ministry is truly about and how you can discover your God-given purpose. In this episode, Pastor Allen continues his conversation with his father, George Jackson, who shares powerful and personal stories from years of ministry alongside his wife, Betty. What began as quiet obedience to God’s call led them to 15 nations, where they witnessed firsthand the miraculous ways God’s truth breaks through language barriers and unexpected challenges. Their story shows that ministry can happen anywhere—through relationships, prayer, and simply showing up when God says, “Go.”
