Pages with Pastor Mike

The prophet Micah doesn’t just predict judgment—he grieves it. In this episode, we walk through Micah’s shocking lament: wailing like a jackal, stripped naked in solidarity with a doomed nation. Discover what Samaria’s “incurable wound” meant in 8th-century Israel—and why it’s at our gate today. From Assyrian war machines to modern idols of power and pleasure, the diagnosis hasn’t changed. But Micah’s tears find their answer in Jesus: the true Man of Sorrows who was stripped, wounded, and forsaken—so the wound could be healed.
