Comments by others:
  • Seeing your e-mail today, made me cry. It has really hit home and is yet another reminder that I need to keep the Faith and believe on God. I literally prayed yesterday for the Lord to give me a sign, something to show me that He really is working on this and bringing it about. I know everything in God's time, then the 'yeah but' comes about. "Yeah, but, it has been MONTHS!" Yet, I know that the Lord has plans for me, for good. So, with that, I thank you. Yes, I know that it was the Lord leading you to write this, but you are the vessel, and you need reassurance that you are on the right track, at times. Again, thank you. Your e-mails are a blessing.

  • Thank you for such wonderful words...believe it or not, most days it's like you write your sermon just for me! Like I'm going thru something that day or week that has affected me to that teaching!

  • Having this virtual service was a true blessing for me today. I work in Therapeutic Recreation at a Nursing Home in PA and we have been in lockdown because of COVID-19 since the beginning of March. We haven't been able to have group activities for almost 2 months and as of two weeks ago, we were told we are restricted to our respective floors. This means my co-worker and chaplain has only been able to hold a service on his floor. I connected to your service this morning so my residents could connect with a true worship service. My residents have really been missing our Chaplain's sermons and they really appreciated hearing Pastor Todd's message this morning. Thank you!
