Meet Michael De Jong, a man whose life story reads like a novel of redemption. In this episode of 'Fortitude', host Heather Kittelson and co-host Amos sit down with Michael to explore his incredible journey from a troubled youth to a beacon of hope in his community. Michael's early years were marked by addiction and darkness, despite a seemingly perfect Christian upbringing.
His life took a dramatic turn when he experienced a profound encounter with Christ, leading him to embrace a life dedicated to faith and service. Now, Michael leads a thriving ministry and church called Activation in Sioux Center, Iowa, alongside his wife Jenna. Their work isn't confined to the church walls; they co-founded Action 169, a ministry focused on raising awareness about sex trafficking. Michael's story is one of second chances and the transformative power of faith.
Whether he's working with schools or reaching out to those affected by trafficking, his mission is clear: to serve and uplift others. Tune in to hear how Michael turned his life around and continues to make a difference every day.
