Micheal Champion was born and raised in north Alabama. He grew up and went to school in Oxford, Alabama and in February of 1986, he received Jesus Christ as his Savior while attending a week long revival at the Salvation Army church in the neighboring city of Anniston. After graduating Oxford High School in 1988, Micheal joined the navy for four years and served as a torpedo man's mate on board two nuclear submarines-the U.S.S. Jack and the U.S.S. Billfish. During Desert Storm, he developed a renewed interest in Biblical studies as ancient Babylon began to come to the forefront of current events again. In the mid-1990s, Micheal moved to St. Petersburg, Florida and in 1999, he attended his first God's News Behind the News International Prophecy Conference which only fueled his interest in Biblical studies. Micheal still lives in St. Petersburg and is a member of Gateway Christian Center. As It Was In the Days of Noah and the Days of Lot is his first book.
