Seacoast Church

Mike Noriega has walked through the fire of tribulation, including the loss of his dear grandmother in the tragic condominium collapse in Surfside, FL (Summer, '21).  As God's presence sustained him and his family through great devastation and broken-heartedness amidst such great loss, they were also rescued from being "crushed in spirit" (Psalms 34:18).

Mike shares his personal account of this tragedy and through the sharing of his story and testimony "preaches a sermon" on suffering, the difference between a broken heart and a crushed spirit, and God's redemption on the other side of great loss.   Along the way, he shares stories of other families who's loved ones perished in this tragedy.
