Mike Wilson is a New Zealand author, Christian leader and lifelong student of faith, theology and the nature of God. His writing is shaped by more than 50 years of faith-based leadership and a desire to help people discover a faith that is intellectually credible, biblically grounded and deeply hopeful.

Mike writes in a practical, down-to-earth style, exploring questions that many Christian leaders are reluctant to address. His writing tackles difficult issues surrounding Christian faith, including suffering and evil, the reliability of the Bible, science and faith, the character of God, hell, judgement, Christian hypocrisy, and the many different expressions of Christianity.

A central theme of Mike’s writing is the conviction that Jesus is the clearest revelation of what God is like. He believes that when difficult questions about God, Scripture or Christian belief arise, we should ultimately return to Jesus and ask what His life, teaching, death and resurrection reveal about the nature of God. This Christ-centred approach shapes much of his writing and ministry.

Mike’s life mission is to help people reach their full God-given potential. Whether through teaching, writing, mentoring or leadership, he is passionate about helping people grow in faith, discover purpose and live lives that make a difference. He believes genuine faith should not simply change what we believe; it should change how we live.

After more than five decades of Christian leadership, Mike continues to ask questions, challenge assumptions and explore what it means to follow Jesus in the real world. His writing reflects a conviction that honest questions do not have to destroy faith. In fact, they can often lead us towards a deeper, more authentic understanding of God.

Mike is married to Jackie, and together they have two adult children and five grandchildren. Jackie has been an important partner and source of encouragement throughout Mike’s life, ministry and writing.

Mike continues to write because he believes the Christian message still has the power to bring hope, meaning and transformation to people’s lives—and that the best place to begin is by taking an honest look at Jesus.
