Mick Wienholt
Experienced, compelling communicator with REAL stories.
Mick's first born, Luke, was a full-term still birth (39 weeks) and Luke's death brought Mick & his wife into relationship with God/Jesus
- Essentially no relationship with Jesus prior to Luke's death
- Certainly aware of God and had gone to church earlier in life, but wanted to do our own thing in life
- Luke's death brought us to a point where we cried out to God for help
- Thought we had a "Luke-shaped" hole in our hearts; God showed us it was a God-shaped hole... He filled that hole and loved us thru the grief of Luke's death and changed our lives & family tree since then
- Great ending, which your listeners will love: 18 months after Luke's birth/death our daughter was born (alive!) and 7 years after Luke's birth/death, God blessed us with identical twin boys born (alive!) in January, (Luke's death/delivery month)
