Michael and his incredible team have pioneered a way for those who speak and preach to minister through the written word as well.

“As a first-time author, one of the greatest concerns is the quality of the content. A dream poorly executed will quickly derail an author's expectations, however low or high these expectations may be. When GCE stepped into the conversation, this grave concern turned into growing confidence. GCE’s best-in-class team lays to rest any concern surrounding grammar, vocabulary, and logic through their thorough editing process. Bellwether Blues has been an outstanding success largely because the contents of the book allow the reader to engage the big ideas without the noise of poor logic or faulty grammar. GCE deserves tremendous credit for making that possible.”
— Jonathan J., Author, Bellwether Blues: A Conservative Awakening in the Millennial Soul (2020) and board chairman of the Forge Leadership Network
