The Journey Begins
The last place on earth that young Charles Johnson wanted to go was Mississippi during the heat of the Civil Rights Movement.

During the long drive to Mississippi, Charles had a deep conversation with the Lord. He expressed his fears and concerns, recounting images of dogs attacking people and doors being locked. He wondered if he would arrive to find black people hanging from streetlights. Despite his doubts, he felt a calling from God to pastor in Mississippi and knew he had to follow it.

But, fueled by his faith and firm conviction, he courageously faced his greatest fears head-on.
