Life Summarized:

My photo
Hey! My name is Justin and I am married to my ridiculously awesome wife Jules. We are youth pastors at Christ Church of Orlando. Life, up 'til now is golden. Not only am I the student pastor of identity student ministries but I am also the worship leader at our church, the graphics and web designer and I run a photography business called J.Mikl Photography (www.jmikl.com). This isn't the only site I maintain. I have a youth site, a college site, a church site, and a photography business to manage. But that's enough of that. I love my life, my job, and my youth. I must say that I have one of the most time consuming jobs but I also have the best job in the whole world. We can't wait to see what God has in store for us and our quickly growing family. Someone once told me, "You gotta think BIG, dream BIG, and plan HUGE!"...they are words I now live by...

Changing How The "Head" Thinks

WOW! It's been a while since I have posted and I am really sorry. I have been swamped with holiday stuff, church musicals, and not to mention the last month of our pregnancy. Well, I was sitting at home last night watching some television and I came across the latest LA INK show. As I was watching a guy named Brian "Head" Welch (EX-lead guitarist for Korn) came on to get a tattoo. I had heard his life story through a couple of second-hand translations but this was the first time I had heard him tell about the day God consumed his life and changed the way his HEAD continued to think. He tells about his lifestyle while in Korn and now his lifestyle outside of the secular rock and about the day Jesus changed his life FOREVER. Check out his story for yourself in this video below.



It's amazing! God blows me away in how he reaches his people. One of the biggest things we instill in our youth at our church is the importance of reaching for God. We hammer it into them. We want them to realize that God has given us the HUGE responsibility of sharing His truth and love. But then I see a video like this one and it reminds me that, YES, He is calling us to reach people but He is a BIG enough God to do it on His own. If you listen to the multiple times Brian "Head" Welch has given his testimony on CNN, FOX NEWS, YouTube.com and many others, you can hear Brian say that something in the spirit reached out to him and miraculously changed his life. GOD, YOU TRULY ARE AN AWESOME GOD!!!

If you want to know more about his God encounter you can read his new book titled "Save Me From Myself: How I Found God, Quit Korn, and Lived to Tell My Story." Brian "Head" Welch has also released a NEW christian NU-METAL album also titled "Save My From Myself." Check them out and support his decision to follow our AWESOME GOD. You can hear his new album here.
