The Father’s Life

The Father’s Life, with Michael Pierce is a regular conversation where we lean into the heart of God and discover together what it means to live as His sons and daughters. For nearly five decades, Michael has carried the heart of a spiritual father, walking with people of every generation and helping them step into the fullness of who God created them to be.
