During this period, God has stretched him in more dimensions than one might expect, and Michael has recorded many of his discoveries in essays, studies, and songs. He and his wife, Sandra Inés Román-Cruz, are members of Uptown Baptist Church, but are currently involved in planting a new church called Chicagoland Community Church.
