Michael Antony O’Sullivan Case, affectionately called Mike, was born in St. Andrew, Jamaica. He is the seventh child of eleven of Lester and Linda Case. Mike pursued a career in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering. A 2001 Fulbright Scholar, he completed his PhD at Florida A & M University in Industrial Engineering in the fall of 2007. Mike retired from full time service as a senior faculty member of the School of Engineering at the University of Technology, Jamaica in 2011.
Mike grew up in a Christian home but left his family church in the Brethren denomination in his late teens. In his junior year in College in Trinidad he became involved with Herbert Armstrong’s Worldwide Church of God and spent the next 21 years as a member of that church. Much of his latest book 'Deadly Toxins of Unhealthy Churches' recounts his journey through this cultic organization.
Mike met Beverly King in Trinidad in 1974, fell in love, and got married in 1977. The union has produced seven children; Michael Jr, Philip (deceased), Andrew, William, Clare, Stephen and Deborah, and two grandchildren; Christian and Harlow. The Cases were called and anointed to be pastors and continue to serve the Body of Christ in various ways including their inspirational books, timely articles, and motivational talks. Mike and Bev published their autobiography 'Diamonds in the Valley' in 2000, revised in 2013. This volume along with other books and related articles can be previewed on their website www.diamondsinthevalley.com.
