On this episode of Real Folks, Real Stories, we share the incredible journey of Michael, a young man who fled the escalating terror of ISIS in Raqqa, Syria, in 2013.

Discover the resilience of the human spirit as Michael's path ultimately leads him to a new life and a fresh start in Australia. This is a powerful story of courage, family, and the enduring hope found on the long road home.
