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 ...
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 ...
I just wanted to say thank you on your teaching of Revelation! You are answering so many of my questions. I am a 60 year old farmer out in West Texas and am very thankful that I found your station!!
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!
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 just want to take a moment to write to Return to the Word and say thank you. I have learned so much about the Word of God through the podcast. Give all the glory to the Lord. Thank you again for everything you all do.
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 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’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.
Hi Mark. I would just like to tell you that your sermons are just this side of fantastic. I've listened to all you have on Spotify, some more than once. God has given you a truly good gift and I have liked the Bible Study as well (waiting for more). I wish you were still in Wisconsin, for that is closer for me than Alaska but I will listen all the same. Thanks. Sean
Hi Mark. I live in Battle Creek, Michigan and I found your sermon series on Pandora. I love the Lord and I love deepening my faith and experience in Him. I just want to give you a very sincere and deep thank you for walking a life of faith. I know that you have spent time with God because I can hear His voice through yours. You're a good man and I have listened to several teachings over the last few days and I love the way that you are able to articulate what you're saying with metaphors. Very ...
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, Mark.
I hardly know how to start this message. As a life long child of the Father, I have seen the Word watered down gradually over the years, until we have what it has become in most churches today. It was so refreshing that God led me to your podcast on Pandora. Your knowledge of the Word impresses me. But not as much as your love of the Father and your willingness to speak the truth of the Word. I listen to your teachings every morning during my workouts. It's like going to Bible ...
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.
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 ...
Your teaching is a breath of fresh air. I learn so much from you. Thank you for using your gift to build up the Body.
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 ...
I would like to thank your ministry for providing a clear, informative, and thorough teaching of the Word of God. I listen to your podcasts as I work, as a landscaper. I grew up in a Southern Baptist Church, and have gradually drifted away as life started happening. Finding your podcast was definitely in God’s plan for me! Thank You....
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to listen to your wonderful ministry.
