"Sacrificing Stardom: How Comedian Mike Williams Left Fame to Fight for Trafficked Children and Transform Lives"

What would make someone leave a rising career in comedy, sell everything, and move to a foreign country? For Mike Williams, the answer was clear: obedience to God’s call and a burning desire to rescue the most vulnerable.

In this deeply inspiring episode, Mike shares his journey from the bright lights of the comedy stage to the heart of the Dominican Republic, where he and his family now lead a mission to combat human trafficking, feed the impoverished, and offer hope to those in desperate need.

Here’s what you’ll discover:

  • The Turning Point: Why Mike walked away from comedy fame to answer God’s call and serve trafficked children.
  • The Reality of Human Trafficking: Heartbreaking insights into how traffickers exploit vulnerable children and how Cups Missions is making a difference.
  • The Power of Obedience: How listening to God’s voice—and following through—can lead to life-changing impact, even when it feels impossible.
  • From Laughter to Love: How Mike uses his comedy career to fundraise and spread awareness for his mission work.
  • Stories of Transformation: Incredible accounts of lives rescued and restored through God’s love and the work of Cups Missions.

This episode will challenge you to think about your own life. You may not be called to sell everything and move overseas, but how can you step out in faith to make an impact right where you are?

Press play to hear Mike’s powerful story of sacrifice, obedience, and transformation.
