Unique Leaders: Michael David

Michael grew up in a small town in Lancaster, Ohio. He grew up in a home with an alcoholic father and a religious mother. There were many memories that he blocked out of his mind. At the age of eleven he was born again and decided to follow Christ. He believes this helped him to deal and understand things that happened during his childhood.He ended up getting a scholarship for track and graduated with the most athletic award. He went to college at Ohio State with a major in Sports Science and later moved to Florida. He worked more in the fitness industry. He worked with Ballie Fitness for a while and then decided to move out on his own. He then met his wife and got married. His wife is a major part of his company even today.A few years ago him and his wife were separated for a few years and then God fixed their marriage and now they are closer and better than they were. They work better together and his wife is there for him and helps him to grow. She doesn’t tell him what he wants to hear but what he needs to hear, which has been a major part of his growth. After he was born again at eleven, he has been a strong advocate for Christ. He has been a strong follower. The one person that really helped him and supported him through his childhood and early adulthood was his grandmother. Her influence still fuels him today. He has been tested these last few years. He believes that we will have deeps and valleys throughout our lives. During these times in the valleys, we can learn so much, but we are not meant to stay there. We need to reach out and take God’s hand and let him lead you where to go next. With this idea, he will continue to follow the plan that God has for him.
