I’m an atheist, but I’ve always been impressed w/people’s faith in God, especially Christians that walk the walk not just talk the talk. After turning my life completely around I believe in myself now & never did, so maybe someday I’ll find my way to God. Until then-it’s great to hear & see the faith other people have.

Fair play to you. CS Lewis is one of the most famous atheists who turned Christian. He’d experienced personal loss as a child, then the horrors of fighting in the First World War. However, at Oxford University he became one their greatest debaters. He also became a Christian and simply said that eventually he gave in and admitted that “God was God”. Christians are imperfect like everyone else and also can be poor adverts for their faith. Michael is a great communicator and simplifies the message in a way people can relate to. CS Lewis’s book ‘Mere Christianity’ is 70 years old, but still is great philosophical explanation of Christianity. Worth checking out.

There's dignity and inner peace in being a good person and not hurting people and spreading joy and positivity and feeling love and enjoyment in an overall way and not a short high type way.

God bless you Michael… I have also been in prison as well, let me tell you it was tuff… I’m from the streets grew up gangbanging in Los Angeles always lead the life of crime since I was 16 yrs old, that’s all I ever knew to do was disowned by my family at age 16, been thru it all gun fights sold dope and got into many fist fights through out the years, one day when I serving time in my cell I picked up the Bible and started reading it, couldn’t let it go I read straight for 40 days… at the time I was facing 27 years for assault with a deadly weapon and robbery with gun including car jacking, I could honestly say that it was the lowest and darkest time in my life, I remember thinking to myself that it was over and I was probably going to get old and die in prison… the moment I chose to open up that bible it completely changed me for ever and my outlook in life, I accepted Christ in my heart long story short I fought my charges for two years and took it to trial and out of those 27 years I was facing I was given 4 yrs, there’s no doubt in my mind that was god he showed up and showed out… my life changed completely, I can really relate to your story and we have similar way of thinking, I truly gotta admit as a kid I was always fascinated with the Italian culture and the mob, I’m also a huge movie fan specially mob movies and anything having to do with criminology lol… people don’t understand how very similar italians and Mexicans are, we are basically the same, from my understanding your wife is Mexican so I’m pretty sure you know what enchiladas are with the red tomato sauce or the green sauce… I truly recommend you to watch the movie my family by francis ford Coppola great movie indeed, it showcases the Mexican people immigrating to the us for a better life and tells the story about a Mexican family here in America living in California… has to do also with growing up in poverty the criminal and gang lifestyle… it’s called MI FAMILIA in Spanish, I recommend for you to watch it with your wife and kids make sure you get you some great Italian or Mexican food pop it in your DVD player and enjoy… maybe you can do a movie review on the movie aswell want your outlook on it, with that being said Blessings to you and your whole family, glory be to God for giving us a second chance at life and allowing us to share our story GOD BLESS YOU 👑🔥🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏼💯💯

Albert Einstein said to his assistant, Ernst Straus in 1949: "What most interests me is; did God have a choice in the creation of the world". NO! Exactly 50 years later the NYTimes ran their end of the mellennium series: "The Best of the Best". Dennis Overbye, MIT physics grad, wrote that from 1,000 to 2,000, Einstein's statement was the most profound question asked by science.The Abrahamic God of faith HAD NO CHOICE but to make this a universe without proof...or even preponderance of evidence. Otherwise he would not be perfect in demanding "faith". The universe screams out Jehovah in its refusal to remove suffering & death despite an all powerful God. "The presence of proof removes the possibility of faith" So would convincing evidence...it can be no other universe.

Micheal is a true legend in life altogether !! 💯

One of the worst feelings you could have. Being in such a state you don't want to wake up.

This is the best thing I’ve ever watched Michael… thank you for the candid story, it helps me get through hard times✝️🕊️

Michael thank you for your personal revelations of your life, good bad or indifferent. God had to break your heart in order to save your soul. I thank God he did!

I love this short stories. 👍👍👍👍👍

All of this has caused me to renew my faith. Thank you.

Wow!!! I actually got chills listening to this. Your testimony is powerful. May you Continue to be blessed.

Always love watching your videos. Your videos are my favorite way to pass my lunch break at work. I can't even imagine solitary confinement... I'm glad you are doing well in your life. You and your family are in my prayers.

I don't know how I got to this video. I've always been intrigued by the mafia life, of course through movies, I've always been straight shooter myself and never been in trouble. Never plan on being in trouble. I just want to say one thing here. Thank you for your honesty. Thank you for sharing your feelings with us. You seem like a tough guy and it takes a lot to share your feelings and thoughts. This is the second video I've watched and I'm in awe of your story telling and in awe of you sharing what you felt during those difficult times. Thank you.

Mike... Kudos to your wife ;) "Behind every great man, there's a greater woman!" Tell her, I think she's an amazing woman! Love listening to your stories! God Bless! Proverbs 3: 5-6 was the 1st scripture that my Bible opened up to, and it changed my life!
