What people are saying:
“Mike is open to consider new ideas and differing thoughts from his own—
…however, all with a passion for Jesus and a spirit of discernment in seeing His truth and love play out. He values different people, events and circumstances as the Spirit moves around his life. He models dependence with confidence that Jesus will hold true to His promises. When going through difficulties he trusts in God to overcome them.”
Rick Viall
“I value that Mike is a safe place for people to experience God’s love and experience His provisions.
Three character traits that he carries that makes this true are: his gift of listening and calm spirit, his spiritual wisdom that flows from him, and quiet humor that keeps people at ease. I love to watch him in action with other people, and the HOPE he speaks over them, that God loves them and has something to say to them or provide them with. Mike listens well and responds in ways that make people feel safe. And I also feel God has gifted him with the ability to prophesy hope over people and teach people how to hear from God for themselves. ”
Marie Carlson
“I value Mike’s pure heart.
He genuinely loves others and desires to see souls set free and come into the fullness of life that Christ offers each and every one of us. Mike’s sensitivity to Holy Spirit and his deep understanding of God’s word creates an environment of trust. He is able to humbly seek the Lord in the process and he does not apply man made methods to meet spiritual needs. His prayers are powerful and affective because he allows the spirit to lead him. Mike demonstrates to those who have come for prayer and counsel to look to Jesus, which brings healing and wholeness. I am currently experiencing freedom in my life that I had only dreamed of experiencing prior to meeting with Mike!”
Christi Greaves
“Mike has an amazing gift of discernment of the Spirit.
Being on the WORD Retreat, small groups, and Freedom class with Mike, it is apparent that he is one with and intimate with the Father. He has inspired me to go deeper with my relationship with God. I have been craving more of an intimacy and tangibility with Holy Spirit. Mike has encouraged me and prophesied over me to move deeper with my walk with the Lord. Mike walks confidently and comfortably in the Spirit. He is a great teacher at what I would say is a tough topic to teach. Like I said above, your discernment of the Spirit is commendable. You saw something in me that I necessarily didn’t see in myself. I craved and wanted to see Jesus’ manifestations, but I was doubtful in my ability. Thank you for teaching me and pushing me out of my comfort zone. I trust you and appreciate your relationship with Jesus.”
Dave Miller
“As attributes go, calm, safe, wise, honest, and peaceful immediately came to mind.
Mike’s ability to walk alongside me through many crisis moments with all of these traits will be a gift I’ll never be able to repay him for, but grateful I will always be. I’ve always felt 100% safe and able to come to him in times of joy, sorrow, and unknown. Mike is a listener, not a “reactor”. He chooses his words carefully, and when he does speak, they matter—which in turn has made me desire to listen when he has something to say, even when it’s not what I am expecting or even wanting to hear. Mike is truthful, but he speaks that truth with love and grace. Everything he does encompasses his faith in Jesus. I’ve told my family that he has a direct line to Jesus; and that is because of the firm foundation and decision to follow Jesus wholeheartedly and without apologies. And, because of his faith and willingness to share who he is with me, I have learned so much about faith and walking with Jesus in ALL seasons of my life: how to pray, how to share the gospel, the reality of the spiritual realm all around us, to never be ashamed of my faith in Jesus, the authority I’ve been given here on earth—the list is endless.”
