Testimonials

“Mike O’Neal’s Spirituality & Space Flight Seminar is fantastic. So many people are fascinated with the idea of space travel, which makes this seminar perfect as an outreach opportunity to the community. Mike’s seminar blends the adventure, imagination, and courage of American space flight with the impact that faith has on those who dare to go beyond. Both church members and visitors alike continue to talk about this inspiring seminar.”

“When we had Mike out to speak twice for our church, one leader said, ‘it was a perfect day with the perfect speaker.’ Mike’s stories of faith-in-practice at NASA resonated with a number of members and guests and have helped spark conversations about faith with believers and non-believers in the days since his visit. I’m grateful for the work Mike does since it provides an avenue for many to see there’s a role for faith in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields and for Christians to not be afraid of today’s science and tech advances.”
