I thought I'd share some of the emails I've been getting from the Singing Churchmen of Oklahoma after my time with them at their retreat on Monday night. I'll post the excerpts anonymously so I don't have to write and ask everyone for permission to post them here.
"Just a note to thank you for your ministry to the Singing Churchmen of Oklahoma Monday evening. I was deeply touched by your testimony and your music."
"Thanks for being persistent and finally finding the OBU campus. And thanks for being vulnerable and sharing your life with us through your music at the churchmen retreat. I have appreciated your songs over the years."
"Thanks for ministering to us at the Singing Churchmen retreat in Shawnee this week. I was blessed by your humble spirit, testimony and songs."
"I had the privilege of hearing you on Monday night at the Singing Churchmen of Oklahoma Retreat in Shawnee.The songs you sang made quite an impression on me, and God used them to stir my heart!"
"I so identified with you on Monday night as I also recently experienced burnout [and] ...stress related depression. Your openess and attitude touched me deeply."
"I wanted to thank you for coming and leading us in a time of worship at our retreat. I will be praying for you. I loved the two worship songs you led us in and would love to have the music to teach them to my church. Thank you again for coming and blessing me so tremendously with your music and your testimony."
"I heard you at the Singing Churchmen Retreat the other day and really enjoyed what you had to say."
"Just wanted to type a note of encouragement and thanks for your ministry. I appreciate your openness and unpretentious spirit. Keep walking with Him. He is our Constant."
"Thanks so much for your transparency during our worship time together. It is always good to remember that we are all in the same boat together, we all face the same trials, struggles, temptation, and weaknesses, but it is most important to remember that we also share the same Savior!! I was truly blessed by the experience Monday night!"
"What an absolute blessing you were at the Churchmen retreat last night!!!!"

All I can say is, "To God be the glory." I'm still aglow from that experience. Thanks guys for a great time together.
