I met Terry at a worship conference when he came/visited with us in New England CT. His ministry played such HUGE role in my life... As I struggled with depression and such a feeling of being hopeless. I've been a christain for years and have a personal relationship with my Savior and love spending my free time worshipping the Lord. If you have never attended one of Terry's worship conferences or heard any of his awesome CD's you need too.
It's truly a worship experience, you'll be touched and forever transformed!
Terry, I hope you have the opportunity to read this, none of us are perfect, none of us have arrived.. The enemy is out to destroy and rob us.. But greater is He who lives for us.. We are praying for you and your family knowing that He will continue to restore and renew your spirits.
God Bless, Nancy Blake

Glad a heart to hear of your return to the Ministry.
There was a man in the Bible that said:
"Though I fell seven (7) Times I got up eight (8)."
Bless You Brother

It wasn't God who wanted Terry M. to get a divorce
(Bible says divorce for other's adultery only and yet divorcing is still not the best answer) and because he's wrong on this God's probably not wooing him into ministry either.
I think fallen leaders should stay out of ministry for good or until much time has passed and they have gone through the refinement/ Biblical requirements listed again-ie. years.
For now I would appreciate Terry's ministry more if it was in the past tense(and have more respect for him, too).
Also what is Terry's pastor thinking? He should know better.

When you experience the love of God you want other to experience it too... I agree with my brothers. If you believe Terry should stop ministering at all, then ... why we preach a God of love and forgiveness? Phil 1:6... I don't judge... my roof is made of glass!!!!

PC Perhaps it would be good then for you to rip out most of Palms in your Bible. Because surely you wouldn't want David to contaminate the rest of your Bible. After being a believer he commited adultry with Bathsheba and murdered her husband.
Wow think you have missed the point. Jesus died for sinners, to redeem them not to condemn them.

You are speaking like the Accuser of the Brethren. There is a man in the Bible called David - King David, "a man after God's own heart" who not only committed adultery but also murder and other sins. However, when he repented of his sin - God did not say he should step down, but accepted him back becuase of his repentant heart. No where in the bible does it say someone who is truly repentant should step down from his calling. That would make every man of God we look up to and preach about now null and void in God's eyes.
Terry, keep your eyes above and follow what God has called you to - it is only Him who you will have to give an account to on the day of Judgment.

Glory to God. When I heard about your resignation from the ministry I cried. I knew the devil himself wanted to stop the influence of God's annointed servant on the church and the world over. I've been praying for you. You touch my life so much through your songs. Prov.24:16. and John 8:36. We'll meet in heaven for eternal joy. God bless you.

I, like countless others, listen daily to your worship as it ushers us into the very Presence of the Almighty. I live in Dallas and would love to know of any worship services you might be leading in the area. My entire family has been so uplifted, encouraged and healed by your anointed gift of worship. Thank you for your open and honest confession. We all fall, every day. Praise God we have a Savior to pick us up, forgive and restore us. Blessings.

Like everyone else here, your music ushers me into the presence of God like none other. I tried to get every cd I could get my hands on of yourS and can't wait to hear your new music. I'm a little old lady but would love to come to a worship service as it's pretty dead up here in the pacific northwest. It's been along time since I have been in the midst of God's chirldren caught up in praise and your music is what we need.

This is great news that the servant of the lord is coming back to ministry. To the brother or lady above that says he should never have returned, God have mercy on you.
Remember what Jesus said about the adulterous woman? The one that was about to be stoned? We all fall short of his glory when we sin but not when we repent and turn away. Am sure God called Terry and he has or is mending him and his prescious Greta.
You have impacted my life terry forenver and ever and am a worship leader because of you.Live worship impacted me so much.
God bless you as you continue your road to full recovery.
