Michael Kingsbury is a comedic storyteller in Vermont who recently became a Christian. The journey he took to faith is fascinating and will entertain you. Michael always knew he wanted to be a comedian as a young man and eventually attended a branch of the acclaimed Second City in Cleveland, Ohio. He was an atheist but how little he knew about a fellow comedian who died his questions led him on a quest to find God.

Great quotes from Michael:

If you stick with anything you see success at some level.

You can think you know something about someone and not know anything of significance.

It [his faith] is so brand new. It’s like a set of shoes out of a box that I don’t really know what to do with.

Working on patience is as hard as working on your comedy set.

He’ll find you anywhere even if it’s in front of a Subway restaurant on a Tuesday.
