He solved the final puzzle asking the question, "What are you doing?" The answer was "Opening a jar."
The vice president of spiritual development for Highlands College rejoiced over his high winnings as his wife came on set to celebrate.
Pastor Chris Hodges responded to his son's win on Instagram joking that it was good timing for the church's upcoming offering.
"My son Michael was the big winner on Wheel of Fortune tonight! Just in time for the Legacy Offering," he wrote with a smiling emoji.
