    I also was pursuing professional golf and can relate to Pastor Michael's story. The Lord called me to be a Pastor in 2018 and I had to lay down the golf a few years ago. I was saying I wanted to be a pro golfer and bring glory to God, but there was a lot of selfish ambition in my heart. Thankyou Lord for calling me to serve You and others. Thankyou Koulianos family for your encouraging word.

And inspiring I left my career of 23 years at the age of 45 to pour into my family and chase the Lord he kept pressing on me to lay it all down for him and I took the leap of faith 3 weeks ago, I don’t know what my next chapter of life will look like, but I’m forever grateful for this power couple in ministry,

    This Is So Beautiful And True. I Love How The Expression Of What It Took, And To What The Body Of Christ Is Suppose To Be To Each Other, Is Brought About. Please, God Be Pleased With This (Praying Because, Gracefully I Am Sure He Is). Such A Wonderful Message/Testimomy/And Communion. 😊♥️

    I've never really had too much to lay down. I can only relate as far as being called away from a typical Florida lifestyle and toward an everlasting one. In 2005. I've been battling porn and addiction to weed and alcohol since 2005-2008. Shortly after I began my sanctification process I began to live alternatively and this podcast is another layer of conviction from the Holy Spirit to remember the words He spoke to the lame man and the adultress "Sin no more"
    I think I've underestimated the call over my life because I've coveted the call over preachers/teachers lives.

      Jesus Image ministry has been a blessing to me too. I love listening to Pastor Michael and Jessica Koulianos.
      And I pray that soon when God sends me the man that He's prepared me for, we'll both serve in Jesus Image, a ministry that recognizes Jesus as King and Lord.

    You both are truly loved. You have revived in me what I had when I just got saved & it became less & less as I grew up to be more humanly mature. Jesus School Online sparked it up, & you just blew the flames 🔥🔥 🔥 ablaze with your Testimony on giving of yourself to serve others. Thank you 🙏 for your sacrifice, transparency & sincere commitment to God’s calling on your life. You’re a great example of Jesus’s disciple. Pastor Michael & Jessica, I love & admire you both. Praying for you.
