  • Collaboration is the only way forward.

    Collaboration is the only way forward.

    What if real change doesn’t come from doing more, but from doing it together?

    In Episode 17 of Unseen Atlanta, our CEO Tensley Almand sits down with Bruce Deel, founder and CEO of City of Refuge, to talk about why collaboration creates lasting change in Atlanta.

    Bruce shares how City of Refuge grew by responding to real needs as they emerged, and why no single organization can solve homelessness alone. From partnering across nonprofits to working alongside businesses and churches, this conversation challenges the scarcity mindset and invites us to think differently about impact.

  • Slowly but surely, we build something better.

    Slowly but surely, we build something better.
    Dec 10 2025

    In this episode, Good Samaritan CEO Breanna Lathrop shares why collaboration, not competition, is essential to transforming Atlanta’s health. From her early days volunteering at a free clinic in Iowa to leading a holistic health center serving uninsured families, Breanna’s story shows how small steps, taken faithfully, create real change.

    She talks about the partnership between Good Sam and Atlanta Mission, the power of treating the whole person, and why access, dignity, and community matter just as much as medicine. And with compassion and clarity, she reminds us: the work feels big, but when we keep doing the next right thing, “slowly but surely, we build something better.”

  • I Thought I Was Going to Die This Way.

    I Thought I Was Going to Die This Way.
    Dec 3 2025

    For years, Micah believed he was destined to die in addiction. His life was spinning out of control; hurting the people he loved, cycling through legal trouble, and trying to fix everything on his own strength. It wasn’t until a court-mandated stay at The Potter’s House that everything shifted.

    In this episode, Micah shares the gritty truth about the beliefs that kept him stuck, the moment he finally let go, and how God used community, counseling, and accountability to rebuild him from the inside out. Today, Micah is restoring his marriage, rediscovering his purpose, and waking up every morning “with victory.”
