Do you love Christ enough to proclaim it in permanent ink? Our guest today, Mike Lewandowski, joins us to share about his ministry in a tattoo parlor. He and his family currently live in Florida, and he works as a tattoo artist, showing the love of God to each customer.

Although Mike grew up in a rough and broken home, God captured his heart and brought him to a better knowledge of His goodness. Over the last decade, he has worked in ministry through his business and through time in the 10-40 window. Mike shares about lessons God has shown him over the years, emphasizing the idea that wherever he is will be his mission field. With a humble heart and love for God, he tells his story of hope and redemption, of how good God is, and of God’s great plans for us.
