Michael realized at an early age that God had called him into the ministry. He was raised in Allen, Texas and graduated from Dallas Baptist University with his degree in Music and attended Southwestern Theological Seminary. God has blessed him with a gift that he realizes came from God and nothing from himself.
  
Michael serves as the Worship Leader/Minister of Music of Sunnyvale, First Baptist Church. Prior to his full time position at SFBC, he had the opportunity to travel and share Christ through music and testimony. His extensive travels have included concerts, camps, revivals and retreats.
  
He or his group, Living Proof, are available for Christian events such as, church wide concerts, youth rallies, youth camps, senior adult and children’s events. Please contact Debra (972-226-7105) or by e-mail: debrabridges@sunnyvaleFBC.com for booking info or interest in purchasing Michael’s CD’s.
  
Michael is married to Debra and they have three daughters, Rachel, Leah and Laura. Rachel is married to Kevin and they have three daughters, identical twins, Korbyn and Kelsey and Brinley. Leah is a student at Texas A&M University and Laura attends Forney High School.
