When illness looms large, where can we find strength and hope? As a sci-fi and horror writer, Michael Andrews faced these questions during his illness. A stirring account of Michael's recovery is featured in our latest episode, where he credits his reborn faith for his recovery. As he recalls his childhood lessons on generosity from his grandparents and the enduring impact of his late father and mentor, he illustrates the importance of mentorship and community in overcoming challenges in life. 

In exploring the spiritual realm, Michael describes his transformation from a Catholic upbringing to a born-again Christian. He warns listeners about the risks and spiritual implications of engaging in such engagements, confronting the allure of the occult and the troubling evolution of entertainment towards darker themes. His book will explore these spiritual encounters in greater depth, serving as a beacon for those navigating their own paths of faith. Ultimately, the episode ends with a powerful story about perseverance, legacy, and the power of divine healing. Despite his near-death experience in the hospital, Michael shares how his unyielding belief in God kept him alive. 

This story is a tale of survival and a testament to the power of faith and the human spirit. Those intrigued by Michael's journey and writings, such as "Learning to Fly, Surviving COVID-19" and "A Walk Among Shadows," can explore his rich tapestry of stories and reflections online. Join us as we draw from Michael's experience, reminding us all of hope's unshakeable presence and God's healing power in our lives.
