From the Heart of a Listener!
Dear Pastor Ford;
Greetings in
the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I
am a member of
a church in Blue Springs, Missouri.
I listen to your broadcasts often and have been
truly blessed by them. I encourage you to keep
on teaching and preaching the Word of God
because it's really helping people more than you
know. Enclosed is a small gift of appreciation.
God bless and keep you always.
In
Christ
N.P.
Today, I am feeling much better.
Last night's sermon from the Storm Riders series
was dynamic!!! The past three weeks have truly
been a blessing to me. I have pulled back from
everyone and everything. Grieving is a very
difficult thing. It is affecting my home, my
health, everything. Just when I think I am
getting better, I go through another black
period. As I stay closer to God and force myself
to attend Bible Study, the stronger I get. This
will all take some time, but I want you to know
that I appreciate you and your teaching.
Prayerfully, I will be back soon.
Thank you,
Very Grateful
