DESCRIPTION

Being born with cerebral palsy has not stopped Michael Yeong from having a full family life and a busy job as a pastor at Bethesda Church Bukit Arang.

This autobiography is meant for not only people with disabilities and their caregivers, but also for anyone who has faced limitations and challenges in life. In Walking with Grit and Grace, Michael shares how he journeyed through life with grit as a person with cerebral palsy, and the grace he received from God, family and friends. He invites readers to view challenges with a different lens, like how irritants in an oyster produce layers of nacre that get shaped into a beautiful pearl, and find joy amid the trials. 

Michael Yeong has been a pastor at Bethesda Church Bukit Arang (BCBA) since 2004 and is a trained professional counsellor. He was born with cerebral palsy due to a brain injury during his birth. He is happily married to his wife, Cynthia, and is a father of two children, Abigail and Nathanael.

Michael is an avid reader and loves to watch movies. He enjoys meeting up with friends and would not decline an invitation to meet for a meal or coffee.
