"I first got to know Mike in 2018, right before the events of this book took place. I went back to the mission field and didn't see him again until 2021. When I returned to our church, I saw a stranger with a beaming face and a childlike innocence, always dancing and worshipping wholeheartedly by the altar. When I introduced myself, I was shocked to discover it was my friend Mike Collins! I literally didn't recognize him as the same person. Until reading this book, I did not know the depth of the journey God took him on during those years I was away. But what has always been evident to me is the fruit - a life transformed literally beyond recognition. Mike's transformed life is itself the strongest letter of recommendation that anyone could give to read this book." -William Shehee, Cofounder and Vice President of Send56 Ministry, Inc.
"I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them" (Ezekiel 36:26-27, NKJV).
Only Jesus Christ could save this apathetic covert narcissist and turn him into a deep, empathetic feeler!
