The driving passion of Mike’s ministry is Marriage and the Family, in which he offers fresh insights into Masculinity and Family Relationships. His stimulating family life seminar: “Is your marriage Bliss or Blisters?”, has been a blessing to hundreds of people. Under the anointing of the Holy Sprit, Dr Gorrie has the ability to expound the Word of God in an interesting and dynamic way.

Ever since committing his life to Christ in 1958, Mike has had a burning desire to encourage Christians to walk in holiness and implicit obedience to the Lord.
