So, some more mission stories. I must say. I’m not going to justify my actions. I realize growing up, it took me a while to really clue into life. Once I clued in, I realized I wasn’t naturally born with leadership skills. I’m grateful for these experiences. But from what I’m reading about myself, I kind of feel like I was more an expletive than a leader. I know some people wouldn’t acknowledge their faults quite like this, but I admit I have them
Personal History
I’m going to categorize my life history here.
Screaming Evil Spirits
As we continued to walk, I was filled with a pit of complete despair so much so that I felt I could not walk up any further. I stopped. I turned to Ben and Kevin. I said, I can’t go any further, I feel something evil up here. Ben told me he agreed. He had felt something evil as well.

. The thing is that she had the same dream twice. The first and second time we visited them. She said she was standing in clouds and then she saw Joseph Smith and behind him were the twelve apostles and Joseph was asking her why don’t you repent? Please repent of all your sins. Let them go. And then they all broke into praising Jesus Christ saying Hallelujah and blessing his name.
Reflections on My Conversion
#GiveThanks – I’m grateful for my sins. For without them, I may have never come to know God.
As many of you know I was once lost.
Turning Points in Life
You know, there are points and places in your life that hold great significance. I was driving down the street in Orem today and passed by one of mine.

One of the greatest experiences of my life was serving an LDS mission in the New York New York South mission. I had the privilege of spending many months in Brooklyn and Queens. It was a gift to daily admire the grandeur of the New York City skyline.
Songs and Conversion Story
This is my testimony and conversion story.
This is a video of songs and stories by Michael Priddis.
These songs were written over the last 20 years. The stories are experiences I have had along my journey in life. I talk about my change of heart and conversion to the gospel of Jesus Christ. My hope is that these somehow, these songs and stories might turn someone’s heart towards Jesus Christ. He is the Savior of us all.
