• Dion I am amazed at the giftings the Lord has given you. In the college you were mostly quiet. Now I really enjoy reading your daily thoughts. I am amazed at the variety of subjects you bring, very relatable. You are doing a wonderful work be Blessed.


• I would like to send a message to Dion. I want him to know that about 2-3 months ago I couldn’t go to church that Sunday. So instead I logged on to refreshing hope to watch his church. There was a spot for prayer requests and so I asked for prayer for my back problems. I have suffered from severe pain for 18 years never finding out the problem. Nor could doctors help. I have been through it all. Much to my surprise when he prayed for me he used oil. And I don’t know what happened but I began to pray and cry. Now I’m not a crier over prayer but I felt something overwhelming. And after I started a new treatment not involving drugs or surgery. It’s called stem wave. And my back is better than it has been in 18 years!! Praise God. I don’t have constant pain anymore. Dion you might not know that what you do touches people! But it does! I just want to thank you. I have been doing your daily devotions for a couple years. It’s how I start every single day. I don’t often go to your site but that morning changed me! Just wanted to tell you! Praise God for your ministry!


• Pastor Todd, your story would make a fantastic movie! It reminds me of David--Jess's youngest shepard was chosen by God to be king! Just anoyther example of how God looks upon the lowest to be the greatest...wow, i just loved reading about your early days. It must have been beyond difficult, yet you endured! Thanks so much for sharing this today!
