A few of the testimonials
received in 1999..
“David. Thanks for the email alert[s]
from CIM. I always enjoy reading it. CIM is such a source
of information for me as a pastor. With the plethora of “stuff” that comes
across my desk every day, I do not always get the time to digest all that is happening
“out there.” Your email alerts and the CIM newsletter help to bridge the
gap and keeps
me better informed so that I might be more sensitive to the issues facing my parishioners. May God continue to
use you and Traci and CIM in the days, months and years ahead! ”
- Written testimony received via e-mail from dear family friend, Rev. Tim Lolley,
former Senior Pastor at Biltmore Baptist Church Asheville, NC
"David, in
response to your email, your newsletter has helped to make me more aware of just how far our country has slid from the
basic moral values of right and wrong as
written in God's Word and founded on God's Word. And it has also showed how I can take
action to help correct the wrongs. We appreciate you! ”

God…seeking His face and His will for this ‘community love feast’…when
He put your name on my heart and led me to call you and invite you to come and share a Y2K
presentation with brothers and sisters from our African-American community in Kannapolis.”
(Background on this unique testimony: On the way to present the
Y2K presentation to Centerview Baptist Church, I prayed that if the Lord wanted to
use this presentation to minister to families and to share testimony regarding CIM, that
He alone would have to move on the hearts of pastors and believers in having
them extend an invitation to CIM …as I was delivering the Y2K presentation later that
night, Pastor Wells called Centerview Baptist and left a voice recording inviting me to share
a Y2K presentation with his church family and the black community at a Community Ministry
Event (in February….the above quote was his testimony on how that came about! One
final note – Pastor wells did not know I/CIM had already prepared a Y2K presentation
nor that I was sharing it at the exact time of his call! God simply is Awesome! I Praise
Him!!!)
- Verbal testimony exchanged with Rev.
Aaron Wells, Pastor of Kannapolis Community Baptist Church
