Summary: Michael Simpson was a Christian from birth — but wouldn’t consider his Christian experience personal until he found freedom in Christ in adulthood. The pressure to “be a good Christian” was heavy. Shame gripped Michael for over a decade as temptation and the need for affirmation ran rampant but living as a lukewarm Christian allowed Michael to avoid accountability.
In a beautiful reveal, God brought Michael out of his captivity — and Michael learned what freedom could be. That’s not the end… as the Israelites wandered in the wilderness, Michael fell into former patterns. But that didn’t stop God from lovingly pursuing him through blessings and friendships. Praise God that old Michael died — and new Michael has been united with Jesus.
