ABOUT MICAH STAMPLEY
Micah reflects, "God processed me before he gave me this ministry. I'm so grateful for this, because now I know how to sustain without compromise."




At the age of 13, in partnership with
his brother Nathaniel, Micah became his church's official music minister, starting his years of service through music. By this time, he had been writing songs for three years, partnered with Nathaniel; a brother that he was really close to, who shared his passion for music.
Greatly motivated by his passion for music, Micah learned and evolved his musical gifts through the process of providing music for praise and worship for his church throughout his teen years, until his 21st year. His voice had also evolved and his ability to sing multi--octaves became more and more evident and strong. His gift of singing and his passion for music were put to good use in serving the Lord to bless others.
Sometimes the Lord uses the tragedy which befalls us in our life journey to draw us closer to Him, giving us more mental and spiritual maturity.  At the ages of 19 and 21, Micah suffered  devastation and pain when he and his family lost two brothers, which hit him hard.
Micah shares with ChristianMusic.com about these difficult experiences which ultimately changed his thinking, and led him to a deeper heart commitment and a solid dedication to the Lord in a personal relationship with Him. 
Micah offers this personal testimony: "I lost 2 brothers in the 90's and both were killed by gun; Robert (1992) and Nathaniel (1994). I realized that if I wouldn't live for God then I probably wouldn't live to see the age of 22."
"Once my heart turned toward God for good and I answered His call with "YES" everything changed. Not just saying yes with my mouth, but saying it with my heart; my "YES" changed the coarse of my life!"
After the death of Nathaniel, Micah answered the call from God with his whole heart. Micah faithfully followed the Lord's leadings and traveled on crusades with evangelist, Rev. Earl Johnson.  He also tried being a part of several Gospel musicals in the Los Angeles area.  During these musicals, he met the love of his life, Heidi Jones, whom he married about a year later. He eventually healed enough to once again come back to his father's church and oversee the musical program.
