He was sentenced to 10 years in prison at just 16 years old. But Jesus had other plans.
In this raw and powerful testimony, Michael Berrian shares his full story — from gang life, drugs, and armed robbery to a supernatural encounter with Jesus inside one of Georgia’s most dangerous prisons. What began as a prison sentence became a resurrection.
After his release, Michael miraculously returned to the same facility — not as an inmate, but as a Juvenile Correctional Officer. He eventually rose to the rank of Lieutenant and now serves incarcerated youth through music, mentorship, and ministry.
This is a story of redemption, purpose, and the kind of transformation only God can produce.
