Dear Pastor Hoke, I am a young pastor working a regular job and pastoring a church of 40 people here in Portland, Oregon. I prepare 3 sermons and a Sunday School lesson every week. I have used your sermons several times when I just couldn’t find inspiration or time to do my own. I just wanted to thank you for this ministry that you and your church provide, I will use it with the utmost of integrity. Thanks. David Bradley

Dear David and the people involved in the David Hoke Website, My name is Andy Conroy and I am a youth leader in Stourbridge (near Birmingham), United Kingdom. I just wanted to E-mail you to thank you for the amazing resource that you have put on the net. Your sermons have helped me in ways that i cannot describe - both as a person and also as a youth leader. I have used a number of your sermon themes and transformed them into a youth orientated message and they have helped in the spiritual growth and transformation of the hearts of my youth group. I do not know whether you get much encouragement and recognition but all I can say is that I as a person and my youth group would be less if it was not for your faithfullness to the God and the gifting that he has placed inside of you. I pray that you continue to hear Gods word and transform it into life giving messages and that his grace and favour rest with you at all times. Thank you again. Andy

I am from England and found your sight by accident. I have looked at the sermons and found it to be a good resource. I want to encourage you and your pastor to keep on with the Lord's work. Even here in England we can learn from you. If you need prayer for anything then feel free to let me know and our church will pray. Every blessing, Eddie & Sharon Pratt

I read tonight a sermon on Ephesians 5:15-17 and I found it very helpful. Will your church consider, apart from keeping the text sermon, to record the sermon in MP3 format and load it to your website, so that Christians from all over the world can listen to Rev. David Hoke's sermon. Just an input. Thanks so much! Because He first loved us, Maurice Kwok, Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Hi, Just a very big thank you for the wonderful sermons and the permission to use some of it. I am at the moment busy with my training for Lay Preacher in the Methodist Church in NZ and find your website very helpful....not only the sermons...but the most important thing for me at the moment is the fantastic contents. You know how expensive books are on this topic and at the moment it is impossible for me to buy everything I want to! I use this sight to help me with my research too. Thanks again, Carien Pelcher

Herb Gehrling from Alberta Canada wrote on March 5, 2021 at 11:31 pm

Dear Pastor Hoke. My name is Herb Gehrling and I am an elder/ lay pastor in our church. The reason I am lay pastor is because we currently do not have a pastor. I personally want to thank-you for allowing me to use you material. I have found it not only an inspiration but also a tremendous encouragement. I own a truck repair business in our community which is located in Slave Lake/ Alberta/ Canada and I have never had any formal training in pastoring a church or preparing sermons and I find it a real stretch to bring messages week after week. Thank-you for your faithfulness to our Lord and I pray that He would pour a special blessing of grace and peace upon you, your family and your church. God bless. Your Brother in Christ. Herb

Peter Moore from New Zealand wrote on March 5, 2021 at 11:30 pm

I have just discovered your site and read a message called blessed are the flexible which has been very challenging to me. I am a lay preacher and am preaching from this passage Sunday next. I believe God must work a message in your life before you can preach it and was challenged today in an unusual area. I have employed a vagrant I met at church last week for a few days work, He has made some very foolish decisions in life and on Friday begged for some money. He promised I'd see him at church and would be at work 8am Monday morning. sadly we had a no show both times but he arrived this morning 1 day late after walking 35kilometres to get to work because he had run out of petrol. I was ready to send him packing but after reading this message and the spirit of god working on my heart. I need to be flexible. Thanks for permission to use your resources. I appreciate it very much regards Peter Moore, New Zealand

I enjoy reading your sermons very much. You have a good writing style conveying both what the text meant and what the text means today. I was pleased to see the additional sermons concerning thinking biblically. I am also a pastor and serve as adjunct professor of Hebrew and Greek at the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, North Georgia Center. I really appreciate your detailed treatment of the text. May God bless your ministry, and I hope you will continue the internet ministry as well.

Tells us how the sermons blessed you!
