Mike Furches's Interests
General
Music, Magic (Illusion, Close Up, Classic), Politics, Religious Dicussion, Real Wrestling, and I could name a half a dozen other things.
Music
Everything but my dream is to have a classic, blues, zydeco bluegrass band. Seriously. Just listen to my music juke box here.
I do have a special place in my heart for the band in the video though. A lot of reasons including giving me the chance to work with some of the best bands ever.
Off The Wall Rob Cassels Band .. Add to My Profile | More Videos
Here is my Playlist of great songs, enjoy.
Movies
I love all kinds of movies, I do reviews for Hollywood Jesus and one of the great perks is finally getting advance screenings. I have interviewed Rob Zombie, Billy Bob Thornton, Mickey Jones, and numerous others.
Television
I am a reality TV nut, I like a lot of shows from Big Brother to Hells Kitchen. I like Smallville, and a number of others as well. The following is a video I put together from the 2007 Season of Big Brother 8.
Books
I pick authors more than books, Creston Mapes, Ted Dekker, Dean Koontz, and I could name about 20 others but these are among my favs.
Heroes
I don't really have heroes, if I did I guess I would pick Tyler Graebner a little boy I worked with who had cancer. Tyler was a great model to go after the things you love. Of course I don't consider Jesus Christ my role model, I consider him my leader and forgiver.

Who am I and why am I the way I am, check this one out.
Who I'd like to meet: I would still love to meet Rob Zombie. You can see my thoughts on Rob Zombie by doing a simple google of "Mike Furches" "Rob Zombie" I finally got that interview, now I am ready to meet him and talk. Can't explain it but the man is a genius, I don't care who you are are what you believe. Of course there are others to meet, and maybe I will, I just continue to be amazed that people want to meet me. I hope I get to meet those people as well.
De 18:18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
Salvation will only come to those who can believe Yah’s account of what Jesus was and is.
"Hebrews 4:14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need."
"1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."
When we are tempted to conform to the ways of the world, just realize that Jesus Christ was also tempted in all the ways we are tempted. By his experiencing the same pressures we feel today, we have an advocate (defense attorney) between us and God (Jesus Christ) who knows what we are going through. We can boldly approach God for His mercy and have His help in time of need. God's promise to us is that when we are tempted, He will alway provide a way out for us. We just have to look for it to see it.
God bless you Mike. Inspiring new teaching blog posted.
"My instructions were to pick four people that I wanted God to bless, and I picked you. Please pass this to at least (4) people you want to be blessed and a copy back to me.
This prayer is powerful, and prayer is one of the best gifts we receive.
There is no cost but a lot of rewards. Let's continue to pray for one another.
The prayer: Father, I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and those that I care deeply for, who are reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through your grace. Where there is need, I ask you to fulfill their needs. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. In Jesus' precious name.

James 1:27 Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you.
