At first when I got this news I was in total disbelief and shock, but then I came down to earth and realised that we are all human and sometimes our flesh can get the better of us, that however does not justify our actions but as you said, when we take our eyes off of JESUS we leave room for the enemy to sift us like wheat. We are no match for Satan. Your music is of a different class, your worship is phenominal, take time to recover. God will see you through, he never gives us more than we can bear..

Shalom Terry, Greta & Children,
No matter what trouble are, as long as God is still on His throne and hears and answers prayer, and just so long as your faith in Him is still intact, everything will come out all right!
Man is born unto trouble, as the spark fly upward(Job 5:7); Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all(Psalm 34:19); For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory(2 Corinthians 4:17); In the world ye shall have tribulation:but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world(John 16:33).
We must be careful how we react when troubles come. Be careful how we respond in face of difficulty and trial. When adversity and misfortune are our lot, that my friend, is the time to look up, to trust God, for He is in control. And He never makes a mistake. Amen!

Dear brother Terry,
I have not seen or heard anybody usher people into the presence of God like you, you have an unbelievable annointing and God has placed a mantle on you. My husband and I with our children listen to your worship songs alot when we pray. You have to come to the point where you know that it is not about you but about the souls God has placed in your hands. There are millions of souls out there waiting for you to usher them into the presence of God. Your wife & family are waiting for you, you are the priest of your house. Yes we fall down but we get up. The Lord has not left you, His annointing is still upon you. Get up and resume your place. May God bless you and your family and may His Grace overwhelm you. You have to accomplish your destiny, God has given you power and dominion over everything.

Pastor MacAlmon:
I was searching for a web site to purchase some lead sheets of your music and found this site. I have been listening to your music for over a year and have felt the deep worship accompained by your CD's.
I choose to call you pastor because you are a pastor and I know from over 35 years of ministry the battle pastors face on a daily basis. My husband and I have ministered and know the fatigue that can set in over a long period of time. It is during that period of time, our mantle can become heavy. It is always the responsibility of the church to hold up their pastors and cover them in prayer. Without the covering of prayer, pastor's are made vulnerable. I am not discounting the decisions that have been made to bring you to this place but every pastor that has a loss of ministry did not get there by themselves. I am disturbed by some postings that are judgmental and analyzing.
I am trusting that you and your family are working through this time of hurt. Pastor, surround yourself with honorable, righteous men who seek to minister to you and lift you up to the Father. Tearing down does not compliment God's work in our life. For your wife, seek women who can encourage you and be the bridge back to wholeness. God does not annoint without knowing the future. There is a purpose to everything and sometimes we must choose to accept the pain and push through to a greater relationship with Jesus. There is nothing that we can do that God cannot use to glorify him if we will allow the process.
Blessings and wholeness to you and your family

I feel the deep pain inside for Terry and Greta. I have been taken up to heaven so often by His music. I feel so sad. How can we restore this family?

We all have failed in one way or another and one does not make it worse than another. Jesus says that if we asked for forgiveness then it is given. I love you Terry and your music has helped me enter into worship with Jesus so much. I pray as do others that you are restored and that God perform a miracle in your life. You shall not be judged on earth by man but by God almighty. So hurry up. I miss your music and your sincere message through song and music. As the song states, How we need the rivers. My take on that is that if it doesn't ever rain on us and the river never flows then why would we need to enter worship with God. We would be perfect. So let your rivers run and let the floods wash away all you troubles and with every storm there is a peace. I thank God for you and I will pray for your life to be blest. You are forgiven.

Terry, you and I had become friends through mutual worship and we are using your video worship, as you know around the world with our MAT teams going to remote villages. I sit here this Father's day morning listening to your worship DVD again and enjoying the presence of the Lord.

Brother Terry,
You were called for such a time as this, the enemy of your soul has launched an all out attack on your life, especially in regards of your worship ministry. You may have yielded to this attack, and feel as though you are left to fend for yourself, I believe the Lord will raise you up in these last days, and pour on you a rich anointing that will release you from the chords of wickedness.
I speak a release over your ministry, in the name of Jesus, and now may the river of living water begin to flow once again.
God Bless You!!!!

Dear Brother Terry,
I'am also one of worship team here at Bacolod, Phils. And we're also blessed every time we meditate your songs. All of us here at Word Of Life Ministry, are truly blessed every time we hear you worshipping God from your heart. And I truly admire you as God's worshiper!
Brother Terry, always remember that God does not condemn, so do we. We love you, and I do hope & pray that you'll come back soon.
Please remember also, that more souls are blessed & saved because of you! God use you mightily & we do believe that He also in stores something great in you, and that's the reason why Satan is trying to attack you!
brother Terry! Don't condemn yourself, stand strong in the Lord & keep on running the race for His name sake! People are healed, saved, restored, & refreshed every time they hear you singing.
We love you! And I would really say this to you! No weapon forms against you shall prosper! In the mighty name of Jesus! We love you & we want you back soon! Please be strong!
