As Mike said, once he knew that he was part of God's plan, he knew that someday he would speak at our church. That someday was Sunday.After a rather typical, superlative Praise and Worship set, our pastor, Mark Malin, introduced Mike and then left the stage.
And for the next 30 minutes, Mike bared his heart and related what God has taught him through this experience of 1) being diagnosed with terminal cancer; 2) being given 6 - 9 months to live; 3) experiencing remission; and 4) being faced, once again, with a ticking clock.
For those of you who have ridden with us since May 2009, you have seen much of the journey. Let us not forget, any of us, ever, that this entire process has been bathed with prayer. Here in Kokomo, we live within the protective bubble of your prayers for us.
For those of you who were not in attendance, let me say that I know God spoke through Mike.
What a blessing for him and me. How humbling to be used in His service. These photos are compliments of another of our pastors (and friend) Morgan Young.
And, by the way, doesn't the hub look cute????

Our love to you. Lynne and Mike
I want you to know that I have followed your story from the beginning. I worked with you at the courthouse, but never had the chance to really know you. Thank you for sharing this with us. Your message is being received by those who need to hear it most....like me.
