I have always loved your music. My friends and I had the privilege to sing in the background choir in Atl, years ago,at Minister R L white's church when u came to do a concert. What a blessed experience. Take good care of your self. GOD wants us to be in good health. My son loves the song, When Sunday Comes. I love the song called, The Man behind the mask, and its testimony. GOD BLESS DARYL COLEY.

Pastor Coley, I truly hope that you get to read this comment. I had the opportunity of meeting you and you wife in Durham, North Carolina several years ago, and you pray for me and I was blessed through your ministry. In 1997, I was diagnosed with kidney failure and I felt that my life was over. Just graduated from grad school and planning for the rest of my life; and this had to happen. I became so depress, I wanted to call it quits. A friend gave me one of your cassettes (yea, I said it, cassettes), and I began to play it over and over again. It's through your songs that I was able pull myself together and ask God to help me. It's through prayer and your ministry in songs that got me over the turmoil. On January 2005, I was blessed to recieved a transplant and soon I will be celebrating almost ten years. Thank you for being that source that help me to get over the hurdle. Be Blessed. I truly love you. Thanks.

Greetings Dr. Coley, I read your article on the tests and trials, you've been through. I know God is up to something good in your life. The word testimony has the first four letters of "TEST", which the Lord revealed to me, several years ago, while sitting in service listening to my Pastor preach. He ask me to look at the word testimony, then He ask me to spell it. I did, and He said, you can't have a testimony without a test, because they both go together. Oh bless His Name! So be encouraged, and again know that God is up to something good in your life, in Jesus Name!!! Oh and by the way, what you said about the music industry, I totally agree, that a clear message should be given about Jesus Christ, that draws souls to Him. I remember watching the grammy's one night, several years ago, and Marvin Winans stated, as he was headed to his dressing room, that God spoke to him, and said, I didn't call you to win grammys, I called you to win souls. That statement has stuck with me, since he spoke it. He is now going forth in the Lord, like never before. To God be all the glory!!!

Pastor Coley, I love you and your ministry, ALWAYS. I am so encouraged & excited to hear that you have new music on the horizon. Take all of these artists "to school"! It's great that folk are starting to acknowledge the gift you are to the body of Christ. In my humble opinion, you've ALWAYS been a living legend. I pray that Jesus strengthens your body to complete healing. Please get the music ministry out Soon. It's been TOO long.

Thank you for sharing about Daryl, I've learned alot. I pray that he recovers. Yes I agree, we must not compromise the music for the message. Our lyrics must be true, people need to know that they are lost without Christ. He died so that we can live with him.
