"If the creator of the universe knows everything you're ever going to do and everything you ever might do. If you're so bad, why would he make you? Obviously, it's a rhetorical question, because, he wouldn't." - Mike Stapleton
Mike had a pretty rough childhood, dealing with sexual abuse and later his parents' separation, which left him feeling a constant sense of shame and insecurity. He didn't feel safe and developed what he described as split personalities. Michael was the person he had to be daily, coping with the challenges, while Mike was the confident guy he aspired to become.
When Mike got to college, he had a major turning point. He decided it was time to stop playing the victim and blaming his parents and past for his troubles. Mike realized that it was up to him to take control and "figure it out." Meeting his wife was a huge influence on this shift. She encouraged and inspired him, helping him reconnect with people and trust again.
Now, Mike has found a church community that backs his efforts to be the man he believes his wife and daughters deserve. Mike’s journey is all about overcoming past traumas and creating a fulfilling, authentic life. His story shows how powerful it is to take control of your narrative and live true to yourself.
