  We're Better Together, Inside the Heart of Impact Baptist Ministries // September 17, 2026

  Sep 17, 202626 min

  Dr. Michael Ellis (Pastor Mike), Senior Pastor of Impact Baptist Church in Frayser, 21-year Navy veteran, and author of the new book Mike-isms: A Collection of Faith-Filled Wisdom. From dispelling misconceptions about Frayser's vibrant 200-year history to sharing the heart behind the Impact Baby Store that recently served over 100 pregnant women and young families, Pastor Mike reveals what it means to serve without expecting return. He discusses the "We're Better Together" initiative uniting law enforcement, faith leaders, and neighbors; offers marriage wisdom from 43 years with his wife Angela; and reflects on the challenge to "finish well"—plus the hard-won lesson that your character should change people, not the other way around. Tune in to hear how Impact Baptist Ministries is transforming a community through consistency, humility, and unconditional love.

  The Mission Trip Isn’t Over, Why Evangelism Must Be Every Day // September 16, 2026

  Sep 15, 202626 min

  What happens when Christian’s step outside the church walls and take the Gospel directly into the streets? On Wednesday’s episode of Mid-South View Point, Pastor Greg Sukert of Central Church in Collierville shares powerful lessons from a recent mission trip to New York City, where a team from Memphis partnered with a local church to reach people in Manhattan and the Bronx. From handing out 1,000 backpacks and sharing the Gospel in one of New York’s most impoverished communities to a remarkable “divine appointment” with a man desperately searching for peace with God, Greg reveals why evangelism must be more than an occasional mission trip—it must become part of the everyday life of the church. The conversation also explores the importance of follow-up and discipleship, engaging a culture that has walked away from Christianity, defending the truth of Scripture through apologetics, and Greg’s three-hour conversation with a Mormon apologist. Why do some people reject Christianity? How can believers confidently engage Muslims, Mormons, skeptics, and those who have abandoned the faith? And what does it look like for the church to faithfully carry the Gospel into its community? The mission trip isn't over. The mission is every day.

  Mike Wiggins takes us back to the days of Buntyn Restaurant, a beloved Memphis institution whose story began in 1927.
