How a Zealous Mormon Missionary Found the Gospel of Grace
Micah Wilder was raised a faithful Latter-Day Saint, or LDS which some people might know better as ‘Mormon’. He is a co-founder of Adams Road ministry, a music ministry that is performed at over 1000 churches across the U.S. He briefly attended Brigham Young University, and at the age of 19 went on a two year mission in Florida for the Mormon church. In this interview, we discuss his book, "Passport to Heaven." This book tells of his incredible Journey of finding the grace of the biblical Gospel of Jesus Christ while serving on his mission. I've shared excerpts of Micah's book the last few weeks and was honored to be able to sit and talk with him about his book and his love for the Mormon people.
I also share some of my insights and experiences with reading the book as well as my hope for the impact it will have on future readers.

As always, there are *so* many things to discuss about this topic, so I hope our conversation is helpful and fruitful.
