Comments by others:
  • This is going to sound strange but over this last couple of months it almost seems like we have been in a conversation because 99% of what you have wrote has been more like you were responding to me in a conversation than something you wrote as a general help to everyone reading your devotional. I truly feel like God is talking directly through you to me. I'll pray about something and the very next morning your devotional is a response specifically to that prayer right up to this morning. You are a miracle.

  • It never ceases to amaze me how God uses you to help us along our journey. It has been a really bad few months for us and as I was driving this morning, I prayed for God to help somehow and show me how to handle everything. It just feels when it rains it pours. THEN, I opened this email. THANKS so much for sharing his word!

  • The devotionals are not dry and vague, but full of life as you give in each of the readings, your personal testimony as to how God Almighty navigated you to where you are today. That's what has kept me Pastor Todd these last two and a half years of transitioning from my past, to the next dimension of my life. These devotional readings has given me a continued "Hope" in our Lord Jesus Christ and the work that He has begun and will finish, until His coming.
