Dear Pastor Mark,
You do not know me, but God used you to save me. I am 53 years old. I have been a bad person and have done some very bad things all my adult life. Just recently, my sister moved to Texas, where I live. She has been walking with the Lord for some time. She would preach to me every time she saw me, and I would listen. One day, we were eating dinner, and she said I should get baptized. I thought about it in my head. That night, I had a bad experience. Something visited me, and ...
Mark is a fantastic teacher that simply shows us what the Bible says and does a great job explaining why. Thank you, Mark!
Thank you! Respected Pastor,
Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ!
I heard your message/sermon, "Finding Your Identity in Christ." Praise God, it was
wonderfully exposited and presented. I am Blessed.
Hope to listen to more of the Word of God through your voice.
Thank ...
Return to the Word has to be my most influential Bible study that I follow. The lense that Pastor Mark sees and uses to share the gift of the Gospel with us with has to be the closest to a true heart for God that I have heard in my entire life. Thank you for sharing your gift with God's sons and daughters. I pray God continues to use you for the glory of Him in His king ...
Recently I did a search for bible teaching in the form of a podcast on Pandora. I happen[ed] to come upon your podcast "Return to the Word" and knew instantly God led me to the right place. I am very grateful [for] your knowledge and stories. I am a new Christian and have been listening to Billy Graham on Sirius but needed something different. Thank you....
I have been listening to your sermons via the Pandora App every week (or when there's a new sermon). I appreciate how you don't sugarcoat the Word. I appreciate how you remain humble (acknowledge your sin(s) too). I appreciate how your message doesn't sound like an advert using Christ and salvation as a selling point. I just wanted to really say I appreciate all your work. And thank you. I felt moved to encourage you and I send all my love. Your congregation is blessed. (Comments shortened for ...
I just recently found your ministry site. I've enjoyed listening to your sermons. Thankful for all of the teaching on grace. Take Care. God bless you.
I felt the need to reach out to you as we ground our beliefs on the same basis. I adore your podcast and listen often. The podcast from 05/03/2016 you concluded by asking your listeners to reach out and say hi! So here I am listening for the first time, responding to you years later and saying hi from New York. Thank you, I look forward to the episodes to come. (Comments shortened for length)
Every time I listen to your teaching from the Bible, I gain more insight as to the meaning of the text. The Bible is not just text to be read or listened to, but to be understood in the context of who is speaking, who is being addressed, where is it taking place, time period, etc. These are brought out in your messages. Thank you for the sound doctrine that is being taught at Return to the Word Ministries. The Bible is just as relevant today as it was when it was ...
I just wanted to say thank you for providing your teachings! I’ve been listening to your podcasts, and they have greatly impacted my life. I grew up in a Christian household, but I would consider myself a lukewarm Christian trying to return to the Word. My faith in God is big. I know He is the One and Only and I would be nothing without Him. I feel my faith and love growing each and every day. I’ve been leaning a lot on your podcast to understand the Bible and learn more about our Lord. I ...
Thank you, your ministry has drawn me closer to Christ Jesus.
Thank you for connecting, Mark. I have been listening to Return to the Word on Pandora and I enjoy every sermon. Thank you for all that you do in the name of our Lord, God Bless you!
I am not sure how I came across your site but I always pray that the Lord would lead me to pastors who have a genuine love of the Lord and are preaching His Word in truth. I have only listened to around three of your sermons so far but from what I have heard, I really like what you say. May the Lord bless your ministry abundantly!
Dear Brother,
Praise the Lord! Thanks for sharing your website with us. Kindly always remember our requests in your prayers. We are always in need of your assistance and your prayers.
With much love and prayers,
I came across your radio program and I have been so blessed. I just started listening recently and I believe that God has been trying to get my attention. Your bible teachings have cleared up a lot of things I've had struggles with. I want to grow deeper in God's grace and truth. (Comments shortened for length)
Mark, you don't know me, but I have listened to all of your Return to the Word studies and plan to do so as many times as I can until I know the Word of God as well as you do. I can't thank you enough for your works. I found Return to the Word in a very despairing time in my life, but I held on to my faith and began to practice my faith through my works. I know the true praise belongs to the Lord, but your sermons are what led me to the strongest relationship with Jesus thus far in my journey....
Your Bible study really means a lot to me. I am a young Christian at 41 years old. Just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your lessons! They have helped me grow stronger as a soldier for Christ and brought me closer to our Savior Jesus Chri ...
The Return to the Word podcasts are so educational and wonderful for me. I don't know how many times I have listened to the John 3:16 episode, but it always lifts me up. I thank God for what you do and can't wait to meet you; if not down here, then in Heaven.
Thanks for all you do.
Just a word of thanks for your podcasts. I found you on iHeartRadio, knowing that God works all things for His glory. I am thankful to have found your ministry.
My wife and I live here in Southern California and attend Calvary Chapel in Rancho Cucamonga (yes there is a place, as Jack Benny used to joke).
So in closing, we appreciate the Word as it goes forth, and may the Lord continue to bless. I have been listening for a couple of days, and just finished, "What Does God think about You" ...
Thank you for your radio ministry. It helped me tremendously to experience emotional healing through Scripture at a time when my family was pressuring me to pursue what would have been ineffective healing through medications. Thank you.
