  • I went online and in desparation, I found this daily word. Every day has spoken to me and His word and your interpretation has been the only thing that has kept my head above water.

  • Wow pastor Dion this was your best devotional yet! I thank u from the bottom of my soul Ive been going through some stuff lately but Im right where i should be and my knees have never hurt more from being on them so much, Thank you for ur very gentle way of getting across to us that living for Christ takes action, obediance,knowledge, but most importantly for me is love and humility and those words are action words and he sees our actions Thank you for becoming the man u are pastor cause its helping me to become the man that Jesus wants me to be, I hope this makes sense to you sincerely your brother and friend in Christ Scott

  • I am always so touched, enlightened, encouraged, strengthened and motivated by your posts Dion and know that you always speak and minister to me exactly where Im at. I love how in tune you are and how applicable you make all your devotionals. I love reading them when it's slow at work and sharing them with others to spark their interest and plant seeds, or just to minister hope. You do a beautiful job breaking it down for people and causing them to boil for Jesus.
