About the Book

The odyssey of Michael takes him from tortured soul to bold believer. It is a story of heart-wrenching psychological turmoil and spiritual transformation. Michael lives out the joys and conflicts of a person coming to an understanding of the full meaning of genuine faith. Michael’s astonishing heroics as he rescues a little girl from a burning building sets up a captivating narrative. Through Fire to Faith follows Michael’s internal struggles from happy times with his wife and daughter to the vicious attack in a park, to his descent into active alcoholism, to the tragic accident that rips his family from him, to the story of his healing and conversion at the caring hands of his beloved Emilee and others along his way, and to his final dramatic battle with his internal demons. Michael’s personal journey is a story that anyone who is searching for the power of mercy and the reality of faith can identify with and take to heart.
