The Book of Michael
I spent my life in search of my Savior. And then to my shock and disbelief after my nightly prayer, he spoke back to me. He revealed things about myself and Christianity that I did not want to hear. An argument ensued and I took offense at his words. When I went to my pastor for help, I became the subject of gossip, slander, and even beyond that open mockery and sarcasm. Yet that moment, now fifteen years ago drastically changed the course of my life, and I am the person I am today because of it. I submit my testimony and the life it changed in this rebuttal for those who don't believe in a Living Savior.
