Dixon is the pastor of Oakdale Baptist Church in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Michael also served for ten years as the executive director and lead counselor of Hope Ministries, Inc., a nonprofit biblical counseling center in Kinston. His education includes an associate of arts in religion and a bachelor of science in church ministries from Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. Michael also earned a master of divinity with biblical counseling degree from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina. Known for his expository preaching style and biblical counseling ministry, Michael enjoys teaching, preaching, and expounding the Word of God.
This book is a result of what God has accomplished in the author's life. Before surrendering to Christ, Michael lived life on a downward spiral, abusing drugs and alcohol. This book was born out of his personal experience of deliverance through the Gospel of Christ. However, the main thrust of this book is not experiential in nature but scriptural. The author applies the truth of God to overcoming addictions. It is God who created us. It is God who knows how we are to live. Michael tells his story, offering hope to others struggling in the spiritual idolatry of addiction. There is a way out of the bondage. The author's life testifies to the truthfulness of God's Word.
Michael and his wife, Melissa, have three daughters and two grandchildren; they live in Nash County, North Carolina.view less
