God Moved Me to Stay: Ashley B. Collins and the Ministry of Presence

What began as a one-time Bible study in the Morgan County Jail became a 13-year calling for Ashley B. Collins. In this heartfelt conversation, Ashley shares how God transformed her expectations—and her ministry—through weekly encounters with incarcerated women in Decatur, Alabama. As CFO and Media Specialist for the Neighborhood Christian Center, Ashley also helps meet practical needs in her community while pouring spiritual truth into forgotten places.
