Pastor Michael Crawford was born and raised in southern California by a single mom. In a moment of desperation, he felt compelled to purchase a Bible, and was drawn to the red-letter passages of the New Testament. Halfway through the book of Matthew, Michael was moved to trust in Christ for salvation. His life was radically changed, propelling him toward eventually becoming a pastor. In July of 2009, Michael moved his wife, Danielle, and their 5 children to the city of Baltimore.
