are extremely timely and pertinent topics, and David Witt did a tremendous
job in his presentations. I think every Christian would benefit from hearing
the truths as stated by David Witt. Please consider this not just a letter
of commendation, but a recommendation for other Christian Churches to avail
themselves of the Voice of the Martyrs speakers resource." - Dr Bob Nelson, Senior Pastor, First Baptist Church, Merced, California.
David spoke his heart; God's heart for His people who are suffering. The stories about individuals are unforgettable!" - Kaye Fisher, Missions Pastor, Skyline Fellowship, Mesa, Arizona.
David is a man after God's heart and desires the Church to know about VOM and how we need to be informed of the persecuted Christians plight. He would be a blessing to any church gathering." - Charles Zwicker, Senior Pastor, Palms Church of the Nazarene, 29 Palms, California.
