About Nick Marica

In 2021, Nick spent 6 months in 3 different hospitals recovering from Covid. While in the hospital death overtook Nick. However, God brought Nick back. All in all, Nick dodged death 4 times and should have lost his voice - but God intervened at every turn! A mere 2 months after Nick returned home, he and Kathy would lose their oldest daughter to Covid. Nick speaks about how Covid struck his family and gave rise to a year of struggle, loss, and ultimate triumph. Nick tells about how recently God released him from dialysis. Nick talks about how his experience reinforced his passion to influence people for the God’s Kingdom.

In his talks, Nick emphasizes 1 Peter 4:12 "do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you." and Acts 16 where Paul & Silas used their prison situation to influence for the Kingdom. He talks about how God used him and his situation to influence for God's Kingdom. He highlights how we need to be about the business of influencing others for the Kingdom.
