At Milestone, we believe that the local church is the hope of the world. When disasters like Hurricane Florence strike, we join together with local churches on the ground to help those who have been displaced from their homes, or are in immediate danger.

Fighting through a life marked by pain and struggle, Kim had been longing for something to fill the emptiness. God met Kim in her brokenness and led her to a place of freedom and forgiveness. This past weekend we had the honor of celebrating with Kim as she was water baptized—letting go of a lifetime of hurt in exchange for a new life in Christ. It’s so easy to look back and see now how much God loves me, and…
We celebrate the stories of spiritual development and restoration, such as Vic’s incredible story in this week’s blog. These stories can be powerful, but please note that they can also contain content that may be potentially sensitive. I grew up in a Christian home, with amazing parents.

For the next 5 years, I just never returned to work. My husband was deployed in the U.S. Army most of the time, and I was…
Did you know that the average American adult spends around 70 hours every year taking care of their lawn? For widows and single moms, that can mean a tradeoff of precious time spent with their kids or family. Nearly a decade ago, a group of men here at Milestone saw this as a perfect opportunity to join together and give some of that time back. From day one, James Hudson and his teams have been making a difference in the…
Seeing real life-change in the next generation is what it’s all about! The investments we make in their lives today impact their family, school, the rest of their life, and all eternity.
