S2E1: Mike's Story: Stronger Together in Christ (Part 1)
God is Good Podcast
In this two-part season opener, Mike shares a deeply honest story of faith planted early, slowly pushed aside, and nearly lost in the search for identity, belonging, and escape. Raised in a loving home by a faithful mother who taught him the power of prayer, Mike’s foundation was strong. But as childhood wounds, bullying, and the ache of a missing father figure grew heavier, resentment toward God quietly took root. In Part 1, we hear how community can shape us — for better or worse — and how pushing God away never means He has left. Come back next time for the dramatic conclusion of Mike’s story, and how learning to truly walk by faith changed everything. If this episode speaks to you, it would mean the world to us if you will share it with someone who needs hope.
About Podcast
In this podcast, we bring you the real stories of everyday people who have faced significant challenges and emerged transformed. Our mission is to shine a light on how God works in our everyday lives to help us overcome adversity.
In today’s digital age, we're barraged by stories of others living their seemingly best lives. Social media, in particular, can be an onslaught of happy stories and extraordinary adventures. When we’re struggling though, the constant displays of what appear to be the perfect lives of others can have a disastrous affect on us. We ask, why is everyone else’s life so perfect while I’m suffering?
Here, we hope you'll find something different and inspiring. In each episode you will hear from courageous people who share their real-life struggles and tribulations. They tell us how their lives dramatically changed after an encounter with God. And they explain what their lives are like now. Are their lives perfect? Well, you’ll have to listen to hear the answer.
We invite you to join us on this journey. We’re glad you’re here—get involved, tell us your thoughts, maybe even share your story of joyful transformation.
So grab a cup of coffee. Sit back, relax, and be inspired by the journeys of ordinary people who love God. And discover why God is good...all the time!
Real People. Real Stories. Real Transformations.
