Micah Modrell shares his powerful journey from rigid religious legalism to discovering the transformative grace of the gospel that completely changed his understanding of God and his approach to ministry.

• Born and raised in an Adventist home with legalistic tendencies
• Parents divorced when he was eight, creating a split between "church house" and "fun house"
• Developed what he calls "an aggressive conscience" that led to cycles of guilt
• Married his high school girlfriend at 19, continuing to attend church but inconsistently
• Became extremely legalistic after having children, believing his salvation depended on behavior
• Struggled with addiction issues that worsened under legalism rather than improved
• Discovered Jonathan Leonardo's teaching that introduced him to a new understanding of God's grace
• Experienced a powerful shift from seeing God as "information" to seeing God as relationship
• Found new freedom to minister to others without needing to prove he was right
• Now lives with peace instead of constant striving, focusing on encouraging others
