169: CrossTalk- The Salvation Army USA South History

In this episode of CrossTalk at the Kroc, we dive deep into the rich and often untold history of the Salvation Army in the American South with special guest Michael Nagy, Director of the Salvation Army Southern Historical Center. From the Army’s earliest days spreading through rail lines and port cities, to the formation of the Southern Territory in 1927, this conversation unpacks how faith, grit, and innovation shaped ministry in a region marked by rural life, disaster response, and deep spiritual need. Along the way, we explore the Mountain Mission, hurricane relief, global impact in places like Mexico and Guatemala, and how God has continually used the Salvation Army to meet human need without discrimination. This is a powerful reminder that understanding our past fuels our mission for the future.https://linktr.ee/crosstalkatthekroc
