Dr. Chris Michaels
He has been called the Norman Vincent Peale of New Thought. But even that moniker fails to do justice to the impact he has had as a spiritual teacher, mentor, speaker, and author.
His book, The Power of You, published by Penguin Press received a Silver Medal at the Nautilus Awards, an organization that recognizes world-changing books. And his influence as a spiritual leader has also been world changing.
Chris is a highly sought-after keynote speaker, with over one thousand engagements at conferences and events around the globe—inspiring, educating, and empowering others to find their true calling.
It is fitting, as he steps down in an official capacity from his work at Center for Spiritual Living Fort Lauderdale, that a scholarship in his name has been created to support a new generation of spiritual leaders who will carry on his magnificent legacy.
