When Nancy Johnson stepped away from her role as CEO of Community Resources Council, she could never have imagined the new chapter God was preparing for her. A season of personal struggle opened the door to an unexpected conversation with Barry Feaker, leading Nancy to Topeka Rescue Mission. What began as casual volunteering soon became a source of deep joy and renewed purpose, as she now spends her days welcoming guests, answering phones, and helping staff create a culture of compassion and belonging.
In this episode, Nancy shares with TRM CEO La Manda Cunningham how the Mission’s culture—where “ego is left at the front door”—makes room for authentic relationships and lasting impact. From her pioneering work establishing neighborhood resource centers to her current role of daily service, Nancy’s story reminds us that significance isn’t measured by titles, but by faithful love in action. Listeners will be inspired to consider how their own gifts and experiences can be used to stand in the gap for others.
