My Brother, Mike

My brother Mike is a Pastor at the Brindley's Chapel Church of God.  Mike is the closest in age to me, with Randy being the oldest of the three of us.  Yes, I am youngest despite what Mike may say.  I remember so well the day Michael became a Christian.  It was during a revival week with Wayne Depew as the Evangelist.  Mike sought out Brother Wayne during the day in order to talk to him about the Lord and how to get saved.  When I heard at church that night that he had become a Christian it was definitely one of the happiest days of my life as no other member of my immediate family was attending church or living for the Lord at that time.

Mike grew so rapidly in his knowledge of the Word.  He and his co-workers started using their break time for Bible Study.  He was so faithful to the Lord and the church - maturing quickly in his Christian experience.  He felt God's call to go into ministry and responded and starting pastoring.  Anytime that I have been able to sit in a service with Mike's preaching, I have been blessed.  He does an excellent job of presentation, of mixing in humor and staying true to God's Word.

I am very proud of my brother Mike and the way that he has served God.  I couldn't attend Pastor Appreciation today, but I certainly do appreciate him and pray for God's best for his future.
