Comments on: About http://adamdavisblog.com I'm lead pastor of elevate church launched 3.29.09 in downtown Monroe MI & founder of treeoflife missions - my wife Kristen & I have two boys Addison & Landon Tue, 03 Apr 2012 10:04:46 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: adam http://adamdavisblog.com/about/comment-page-1/#comment-4594 adam Mon, 12 Mar 2012 14:40:06 +0000 http://adamdavisblog.com/?page_id=2#comment-4594 Thanks for your encouraging words Anthony and I'm glad you and your fiancée are enjoying your experience at Elevate. A little side note: your soon to be father-in-law shares a birthdate with my sister-in-law so happy birthday to them both. I will definitely watch the video you sent. I have friends that are involved with mission work in Uganda and have been aware of the child soldier tragedy for some time. It is definitely a scheme born from evil that is attempting to rob people and nations of a future. While I can't guarantee that this cause will get mentioned in a service, I will see how I can help with awareness after watching the video. There are so many great causes and both time and passion are limited resources. That is why it is awesome that God lays different things on different people's hearts. I commend you and the family you are marrying into for championing this cause. Thanks so much for sharing something you are passionate about with me. Keep me in the loop as to what you guys are doing to help bring a brighter future to the children of central Africa and be sure to come say hi to me after a service at Elevate. Grace and peace, Adam Thanks for your encouraging words Anthony and I’m glad you and your fiancée are enjoying your experience at Elevate.

I have never been so moved by the way a pastor speaks as I do from you. I feel the compassion in your words. At times, it almost sounds as if you are fighting away tears. Lately you have been preaching that we are “On the Verge” of being a part of something new…something greater than ourselves. I feel I have found another way for us to do this. Today is my fiancés father’s birthday (3-11-2012). All he wanted for his birthday is 30 minutes of our undivided attention to watch this video. I know you are a busy man but please take ½ hour of your time to watch this video on the link I posted below. My soon to be extended family is going to take part in this cause and I would love for you to say a few words about it in the next couple services. I feel that our community can contribute greatly to this cause. http://www.fastcoexist.com/1679471/invisible-children-responds-to-the-kony-2012-viral-video-controversy Thank you and God Bless, Anthony Adam,

I used to drive to Toledo and went to Cedar Creek. I just need to let you know how much you have impacted my life, especially in these last few services. I have a been going to church all of my life. I was raised catholic. You have brought me to tears and made me come out of my comfort zone in regard to sharing with people my love for God. You have such a gift and I am so glad that I have come to Elevate to be able to hear God's word through your voice. In all my years of going to church, I have never seen anyone more passionate about God and God's work. You are awesome at what you do, please keep going. Thanks to you and thanks to Elevate for giving me an opportunity to become closer to God. Thanks for listening and have a great day. Sincerely, Lynn Hart Hi Adam,

I attended the mothers day service today and I wanted to let you know that if felt as though you were preaching right to me and it really did open my eyes on many things, especially in relationships. I wanted to thank you though because it made everything for once make sense and its not very often in this poor lighted world that things are put into perspective. You are an amazing pastor and Elevate has impacted my life for the better in many ways. I was so depressed and down about life until you and elevate helped my find God, and helped me begin my walk with God. I'm only 19 but life hasnt been easy my mom is an alcholoic and my parents are devorces becuase of it. I've raised my two brothers since I was 13. It makes me feel good to be part of something that is taking steps to change the world and help others. And it helps to have somewhere to go that reminds me that all happends for a reason and God wouldn't deal me the hand I've been dealt without knowing I could handle whatever he throws at me. But thank you for being the light in the darkness. Peace & Love Danielle Adam,
