Hey "T" if you ever read this just know that me and a million others got your back in every sense of the word. And remember if God be for you, who can be against you! Take the time you need, relax, meditate, and write new music from your heart. You're just going through this hell of a storm because you are LIFE changer beyond comparison. I know because the debil , society, and the church give me the same trouble. If you can come visit Living Word in Forest Park, IL., where Bill Winston is a Outstanding Pastor and Teacher of times like these. God's power to rise above lies in you!

When I heard that Tonex was not continuing in the industry anymore, my first initial response was sadness, I'm not gonna lie, I was selfish at first, but by me being a TRUE Christian, not just religious, I came to the realization, that if this is God's way of getting Tonex to do his perfect will and if this is God's way of keeping Tonex, then so be it! For his soul is more important than the cares of the world, not saying that Tonex wasn't representing, cause Lord knows he was and hopfully still is, but I'm looking beyond Tonex's career and looking at a "brother's" soul!
Much Luv!

The music that God has allowed you to put out into the world has really touched alot of people. Don't get me wrong, I love worship music, but some people are not use to that, especially people still in the world. They have to work their way up their, and I think that God has called you to draw them. Thats why your music is so different. God Knows and he's going to make a way.

My Dear Younger Brother, (Tonex)
I witnessed you worshipping the LORD JESUS on your knees on TBN one night And, I've never forgotten that glorious scene..Please remember that "posture"
From "there & your heart";GOD WILL SURELY ANSWER YOU. Any "WORD" from the LORD is never late!!!!!!!
Praying for you,
Yours, In CHRIST JESUS!

Tonex, yr ministry has it's place in the gospel, "The spreading of the good news" It seems as you have been like so many others really living for God, like an outcast. The music industry really does need help. Thank God that yur paving the way for people like me. I can not keep my eyes on people because they constantly hurt me. My soul toils because I am human. But my spririt! My spirit leaps for joy when I think about how valuable I am to God and his kingdom, please don't be like Lucifer, because when you fall others fall with you. Accountability is responsibility. I Pray 4 U

I was sadden to hear that Tonex bowed out of saving souls. I saw him in Boston at a tent worship last summer and he was so filled with the Holy Spirit. He was different compared to the other acts..he was real and filled with God's glory all over him. A true warrior for God's Kingdom to come here on earth. Special and Blessed, something we all desire in our journey before facing our Lord on that day and to say to our Father, He is our Life and our Purpose. Seek first the Kingdom of Heaven and all will be given. God first, everything next.

Tonex if you read this, know that God knows whats best for you. Your music ministry has been extremely encouraging while I was in Iraq from 2003-2004 away from my family. My three children, 5,7, and 8 know your music better than you. (smile)! Now concerning those who talk. God will take care of those who lie on you. Keep on running for Jesus. Stay with Acts 2:38, don't concern yourself with traditional apostolics who are stuck in their ways. Use the gift God gave you. God bless you. Read Joshua 1:9

Simply unbelievable!! I can't believe this. This is absolutely shocking. Tonex can't leave now. After an album like Out the Box. I am so sad.

"T", Ton, T-boy, Tonex, I'll never forget the time I 1st heard you. You inspired me to keep on. I was honored you requested that I stay on keys during your time at Rhema Christian Center. Thank you for confirming that we have been called to war by our father. Take your time to breathe, bro. Nobody said the road would be easy, people NEED some oxygen. You're still an inspiration on the bench, reminding us all know that THIS THANG IS REAL!!! Comeback when you know & when coach says your ready. I'm making my way off the bench, looking forward to passing the baton.
