My Calling – Mike Brady

My Calling – Mike Brady

I am Mike Brady. I have been a General Baptist my whole Christian life, which started when God called me out of darkness and into His marvelous light in June 1990. I had an experience when I was younger, but if I had died before June 1990, I would not have ended up in...
