God bless you guys. You have truly inspired and encouraged me so much.
Hi Pastor. We have not met. I came across your (Return to the Word) sermons and Bible teachings from a Pandora program, and although I do not claim to be any type of biblical scholar, I would like to thank you in particular for teaching what I would consider disciplined sermons on the proper meaning and intent of God's scripture. Also as an added compliment the interjected humor and similes for more emphatic and vivid descriptions in your articulations are especially effective. (I enjoyed the ...
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)
I listen to your podcast every day at work, at home, and before church. I have listened to all of them more than once. I want you to know that your understanding of the Word and your commitment to the faith is such an encouragement and a blessing. I am learning to fall in love with scripture and Jesus all over again through your works and dedication to Christ. With tears in my eyes, I want to thank you for allowing me to worship God with you every day. It has changed my life and given me a ...
I’ve been listening on Pandora for 6 months just discovered you on Facebook. Powerful stuff especially during these times and when church was closed. I love Mark's approach and the way he delivers his message. The Word doesn’t lie.
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....
Hello,
My name is Alicia and I live in Australia. I have been recently listening to your Return to the Word program and I just wanted to write and let you know how much it means to me. It has truly been a blessing to be able to find sound biblical teaching that I can listen to each week. That is something hard to find in my area.
I especially appreciate the in-depth teaching and biblical applications of God’s Word that Mr. Fontecchio provides in each message. The illustrations help God’s ...
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" ...
Hi Mr. Fontecchio,
Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question. Mostly, I am just so glad (I cannot even really tell you how glad) to have discovered that there are men out there teaching the truth--men like you and Mr. Hixson. We have felt alone for so long. I cannot tell you what it means to me just to know you are there. Thank you for all the material you have available on your website that we can use and learn from. It is a blessing to us. Blessings to you and yours in C ...
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)
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 ...
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.
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....
Thank you for the podcast, I listen to it most nigh ...
Thank you pastor for being such a wonderful messenger that articulates the Word so precisely.
I drive a truck, with many hours spent on the road I have wasted time with mindlessness until recently I found..... no God brought your ministry into my life. I now spend my time with the words of your Bible study immersed in God's Word, instructions, and love. Thank you for answering God's calling to spread His eternal Word. May God bless you fully and in His perfect wi ...
Thank you for all you do! Please never stop doing it. You help us have better eyes to see and ears to hear! You have helped to change our live ...
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 ...
May the Word of Jesus Christ continue to be preached all over the world. I thank God I found your station in Pandora, and I can’t stop list ...
