The best thing I can say is that this course was a tremendous gift from God, through you, at this stage in my life. I thank you for sharing yourself, your knowledge, your experience with me. The talks were a joy to listen to; the material so well presented, clear, precise and your English too was tremendous!
I was very impressed by your insight into Scripture. I am asking myself like the people who lived with Jesus: "Where did he get this wisdom from?" May the good Lord continue to bless you abundantly always.
