"What Are The Odds?" By Mike Lindell Is An Amazing Read

"What Are The Odds?" Offers Hope


As if manufacturing the world's best pillow to make our lives better isn't enough, Mike Lindell goes the extra mile to pen a book to encourage all readers that no matter how far you've sunk, you can turn your life around.

Mike's story focuses on the self-destructing aspects of addiction, but if you've ever made big mistakes you regret or wonder if you've missed your chance at a better life, you will be inspired by Mike's personal account.

Mike Lindell's book is a wildly interesting story.

When a fisherman catches a large fish, its size gets bigger every time he tells the story.  Mike is a masterful storyteller, so when he shares his personal experiences, you wonder how so many bad things could happen to one person and he still be alive to tell about it.

Mike's parents divorced when he was a young boy, and the painful impact of that significant life event affected him more than he realized.  He developed a gambling addiction which caused him to both win and lose substantial amounts of money for decades.  He was a bar owner who made sure his patrons had a good time by pulling some wild and crazy stunts.  He had run-ins with bookies and drug dealers and dangerous brushes with death.  He was in multiple freak accidents and walked away unharmed.  People around him who were supposed to be business allies tried to steal MyPillow, and he had to fight to keep his company alive and in his control.  Eventually, his cocaine abuse progressed to crack addiction, and he lost his home, his wife, his family, and even spent time in jail.  Mike reached a point in his life where he couldn't go any lower unless it was six feet under.  


Sometimes, Mike's stories sound like embellished, tall tales, much like a fisherman, but they aren't.  How can one person experience so many blows and turn out a successful millionaire and CEO of his own company?  Mike himself often wondered, "What are the odds?"    
 
Divine Intervention is available to everyone who wants it.

"What Are The Odds?" Is A Story About Faith


Even though Mike wasn't a Christian to start, God would give him dreams, visions, and prophetic words, even though he didn't realize at the time what these things were or what to do with them.  Mike sprinkles many of these fascinating God encounters throughout the book.

Sometimes, we wrongly assume God only talks to people we deem the most spiritual.  God wants to talk to YOU.  Why?  Because God loves you, He wants a relationship with you, He handcrafted a specific calling for your life, and He wants to help you walk in the destiny for which He created you.  No one is here by chance--your life has a purpose.  No one knows you better than your Creator, and He's the only one who can save you when you've slipped off course.


As you read Mike's story, you see how God relentlessly pursued him like the Good Shepherd.  God spoke through many people, including Mike, to let him know He had something "important" for Mike to do that involved a "platform."  As Mike began turning away from his self-harming addictions and reaching out to God, he found the inner strength and the faith to stop gambling and doing drugs--even though drugs was something that had consumed him 24/7 for decades.  With God, nothing is impossible!

God is using Mike to accomplish His purposes because Mike is willing.  Are you?


Eventually, Mike realized he believed in God and knew a lot about Him, but he had still never handed Jesus the steering wheel to his life.  At a special retreat, Mike finally surrendered his life to God, and it was like a movie of his life replayed in his mind's eye--he saw Jesus had been with him through it all.  

Mike learned there are "core memories," or primary points of pain, in a person's life that are like spiderwebs shooting poison silk into every area of life.  Once broken areas are recognized and acknowledged, healing can take place, and Jesus is the Healer.

"What Are The Odds?" Shares How MyPillow Was Born & How It Grew


It's hard to watch television and not come across one of Mike's MyPillow ads--they are lengthy, but charming and endearing.  Mike seems like a sweet teddy bear, though one author suggests he's constitutes the new sexy bad boy (read why).   Getting MyPillow off the ground, however, posed a host of challenges, so hearing an entrepreneur describe the trials of jumpstarting the successful company we know and love is very interesting.


"What Are The Odds?" Documents Mike's Journey From A Crack House To The White House


For much of his life, Mike was terrified to speak publicly.  Now, he's spoken at college convocations, rallies, Christian programming, and even hosted his own documentary on election fraud.  He's rubbed elbows with President Trump, Ben Carson, and so many other important figures.

Mike's words are motivating because they come from his heart.

Mike remains a humble man with a generous heart who wants to help others by sharing the grace and mercy of Jesus.  God's redeeming power is available to anyone who wants to turn their lives around and achieve their dreams.  Mike established the Lindell Recovery Network to help addicts who want to break free from their destructive habits and lifestyles, and Mike's own life is a testimony that it can happen.

When you have Jesus, the impossible always become possible.  

Mike Reveals All The Skeletons In His Closet Himself


Many have wondered if Mike will run for governor in his home state of Minnesota.  He has toyed with the idea, but has said he wouldn't run for dog catcher until the voter fraud is sorted out.

The political Left in our country hates Mike because he's a conservative, so they have already coordinated a hit job on him by pressuring corporations to drop his MyPillow from their stores.  No worries.  Patriots have his back and keep ordering enough to compensate for his lost revenue stream.  


Should Mike actually run for office, he has taken the wind out of the sails of anyone assigned to do opposition research on him.  There are no skeletons to find and scandalize because Mike lays out all his many sins in What Are The Odds?   He's done bad things, but he admits them, he's repented, and he's a different man now.  His life bears the fruit of his transformation.  If God be for him, who can be against him?

Mike Lindell does not fear the media, nor does he bow the knee to avoid cancellation.

Mike Lindell Deserves Your Support


If you know someone who suffers from addiction and has lost hope, What Are The Odds? would make an inspiring gift.  For those of us who've never tried drugs, the book is a real eye opener to help us get inside an addict's mind to better understand their struggle.  


Does MyPillow really give you the best sleep of your life?  Read here for a product review.  


What Are The Odds? could be a TV movie.  Even brilliant works of fiction pale in comparison to the action and drama in Mike's book.  It is a must-read, so be sure to snag your copy today.  

God spared Mike Lindell for a reason.  We will continue to watch the story and the purpose unfold.

Mike feels like part of the family after you've seen his commercials for a while.

Don't Let Your Kids Read Harry Potter

Have your kids been imploring you for permission to read the Harry Potter series?  It seems like everyone is hooked on these books, making your kids feel awkwardly quarantined from their peers over the divide on principles.  After all, Scholastic book orders provided by the indoctrination centers of public schools are brimming with Harry Potter selections, serving up an alarming dose of witchcraft for the youngest readers to the oldest.  Isn't everything sanctioned by the schools supposed to be in your child's best interests?  Hardly.  Not only is the book addiction rampant, but the frenzy is intensified by movies, museum exhibits, and video games.  A full line of merchandise supports the franchise, offering consumers Harry Potter board games, magic wands, apparel, cups, calendars, umbrellas, necklaces, and other fan fare products.  If Harry Potter is so evil and insidious, surely the bandwagon would be fairly empty, right?  We find the answer in I Corinthians 2:14,

'Tis the Season for a Christmas Book Giveaway: Two Copies of "The Christmas Town" by Donna VanLiere

  The Christmas Town Became a Hallmark Movie Fans of Candace Cameron Bure will remember her portrayal of Lauren Gabriel in Hallmark's 2019 movie,  Christmas Town , which is based on this book by Donna VanLiere.  However, the Hallmark version has almost nothing in common with the novel.  The book and the movie share only three things:  character names, setting, and the fact Lauren was once a foster child.     Since the storylines veer in different directions, the book will take you on a far deeper and better journey.   Lauren is a 21-year-old cashier who grew up in foster homes, always hoping the relationship with her drug addict mother might one day be restored.  She longs for family.  One day, she witnesses a car accident that thrusts her into the small town of Grandon.  She loves the town and all the people in it and finds the faith, hope, love, and family her heart has always longed for. The Christmas Town is a very uplifting story brimming with faith, generosity, servanthood,

The Phantom of the Opera: Comparing & Contrasting Gaston Leroux's Book to the Movie Based on Andrew Lloyd Webber's Musical

  The Phantom of the Opera Plot Summary Originally written as a serial story for the Le Gaulois newspaper, The Phantom of the Opera was released as a novel in March 1910.  It remains as captivating today as it was then thanks, in part, to the enticing score composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber that debuted in 1986.  In 2004, Joel Schumaker's film adaptation of the musical provided a chance for everyone to experience this thrilling and chilling romance.  The Phantom of the Opera is a gothic tale about a deformed musical genius who "haunts" the Paris Opera House.  He lives in a secret lair of his own creation by a lake in the deepest recesses of the opera.  The Phantom, whose real name is Erik, becomes obsessed with Christine Daaé, and under his tutelage, he prepares her to be the next prima donna of the opera in place of the current soprano, Carlotta.   Thinking the Phantom is the Angel of Music her father promised to send her when he went to heaven, Christine blindly submi

A Review of Tucker Carlson's Eye-Opening Book, Ship of Fools: How a Selfish Ruling Class Is Bringing America to the Brink of Revolution

The radical Left has tried to drown out Tucker Carlson's voice of reason, but he won't be intimidated or silenced.  Carlson calls his evening show on Fox News "the sworn enemy of  lying, pomposity, smugness, and group-think."  In his latest book, Ship of Fools , he offers an eye-opening account of what we have suspected all along about the radical Left agenda, but unlike liberals, he presents actual facts and logic to prove his points.  What he reveals about the far left-wingers who have hijacked the entire Democratic Party is more than unsettling. Two years after Trump's election, the socialist liberals and their fascist propaganda machine, the fake news networks, still cannot accept his presidency.  Carlson points out just why Trump was elected--he was the only one who seemed interested in what voters had to say, and electing him was our "throbbing middle finger in the face of America's ruling class."  Wouldn't you agree? Carlson conclud

Review: "The Book of Signs" by Dr. David Jeremiah

Is the End of the World Near?  When you watch the news and read the headlines, it seems our world is hurtling towards disaster.  Christ followers are taught to be ready for His Second Coming, although no one knows the day or the hour He will return. The Bible is filled with prophetic passages to give us clues about what to expect in the end times leading up to the apocalypse; however, unless you're a Biblical scholar, many of these scriptures may seem cryptic.   In The Book of Signs , Dr. David Jeremiah shares deep insight into complicated Biblical prophecy to make it digestable and easy to understand.  Your eyes will be opened, and the meaning behind familiar scriptures will be revealed  like never before.   How The Book of Signs is Structured The Book of Signs is a comprehensive manual that breaks down end time prophecies into manageable chunks over the course of 31 chapters: PART 1:  International Signs Chapter 1:  Israel Chapter 2:  Europe Chapter 3:  Russia Chapter 4:  Babylo

2023 Reading Challenge That's Fun & Easy!

Not Your Typical 2023 Reading Challenge When you're a voracious bookworm, a new year means a fresh start on tackling your TBR list.  We somehow think this is the year we will mark every book as read and finally reach the end of our list, knowing the lofty goal will always remain a dangling carrot of vain pursuit.   With renewed vigor and time on our hands in the colder months, we also accept reading challenges to expand our literary horizons.  Like many New Year's resolutions, our enthusiasm quickly wanes when we fall further and further behind, and the challenge becomes more like a tedious chore than something to savor. Let's change that in 2023! Reading should always be a rewarding, worthwhile experience.  Life is busy, so when you can squeeze in time for reading, it should be like sitting down with your best friend--a fun and unhurried time of delightful engagement.   Challenges that include specific books, themes, or genres that don't interest you or ones that tax y

Debbie Macomber's "Twelve Days of Christmas" Should Be A Hallmark Movie!

Novelist Debbie Macomber Is No Stranger To Hallmark Debbie Macomber is a prolific romance novelist with over 150 books to her credit.  Unlike other cheesy five and dime romance stories, Macomber weaves clean tales brimming with heart and depth.  Her Cedar Cove books have been adapted to a Hallmark television series, and six of her novels have been made into Hallmark Christmas movies: Dashing Through the Snow Trading Christmas Mrs. Miracle Call Me Mrs. Miracle A Mrs. Miracle Christmas Mr. Miracle Twelve Days of Christmas was published back in 2016, and it's one of Macomber's best.  It has a Hallmark vibe, so it's a mystery why Hallmark hasn't seized the story instead of recycling so many of their same old plots.   Twelve Days Of Christmas Plot Summary Julia Padden is always smiling, bubbly, and chatty, which rubs the Scrooge-like neighbor in her apartment complex the wrong way.  Gruff and unfriendly, Cain Maddox rudely rebuffs all of Julia's attempts at being a ki
