Episode 126: Getting Lost in Celebrity and Found By Grace with Michael O'Brien Living Wholehearted Podcast With Jeff and Terra

    • Parenting

Michael O'Brien would take his place, front and center stage, leading thousands in worship as the lead singer of Newsong. Then he would run to the back of the bus with shame and awareness of the hidden life he was trying to bury. Those "dark ages" in his life, where he believed the lie that God needed him to keep doing “all the things” almost led to the end of his marriage and the breakup of his family. That was a turning point for Michael. In this episode he shares the hope he and his wife have found together after thirty-plus years of marriage. It's so easy to compartmentalize our lives, but God's grace invites us to another way, a better way of living.
 
Michael O’Brien has served as a leader for over 20 years through his gift of music. Years ago, he made a specific shift in his career - reprioritizing his calendar and putting his focus back on his marriage and his children. He spent 7 years as the lead singer of the Christian band Newsong. His 2007 album, Something About Us, and 2010 album, Be Still My Soul, capture the rebirth of romance in his marriage, as well as their renewed sense of hope and healing. Michael O’Brien is a Grammy award nominee and a Dove award winner, but more importantly, he is a man of great passion, wisdom and faith.
