Winning After God Gives and Takes Away (EP:896)

Real Men Connect with Dr. Joe Martin - Christian Men Podcast

Gary Miracle is a Christian advocate, fighter, and motivational speaker.

He is Michigan-born and was Florida-raised by a close-knit family, and his life was forever changed by two events: First, the day he placed his faith in Jesus Christ, and second, the phone call he got to work with MercyMe, the Christian band that brought the world, “I Can Only Imagine.”

Both his relationship with Christ and friendship with the band would have an eternal impact on his life.

Gary is the father of three boys and he’s the forever dad of an adopted daughter from Colombia, South America.

Back in December of 2019, Gary fell ill, and his body went into septic shock after an advanced case of the flu. In the days that followed, he survived a number of life-threatening moments including coding and being revived.

After falling into a coma, Gary’s family had to make the unfathomable decision to attempt to save his life by agreeing for the doctors to amputate both his hands and feet. Through his long and arduous recovery, Gary had to make the difficult, daily choice to discover a new life, that today, he believes was always waiting on him to experience.

His 20-plus year friendship with the Grammy-nominated Christian band, MercyMe, was the catalyst for them to introduce Gary’s story to the world through the music video for their hit song called, “Say I Won’t.”

Today, when Gary isn’t at home with his family in central Florida, he is out on the road sharing his story at churches, conferences, and conventions of how he discovered the life God always had waiting on him -- despite personal tragedy and trauma.
