Michael lives

Those who love Michael Phelps - and all his worldwide admirers - almost lost him when he came close to self-destruction after the 2012 London Olympics. But he has a story to tell about his walk back to life worth living.

A significant role was played by his NFL friend Ray Lewis, who gave him the book Purpose Driven Life: What on Earth am I Here For? by Rick Warren. How fitting is that - a pastor tells him that he has value and purpose outside of his medals.
