   Every song on your new album is awesome, but when this song starts to play the volume goes way up and it rewinds for a second time through as we worship God. Hope we’re not bugging Pete next door with the volume
   Thanks for sharing your gifts and blessing us! The Shaws

   Hi Phil,

   My wife and kids and I LOVED your concert last night at Solid Rock. Rachel (age says, “I liked your music alot”. Robert (age 11) says, “We couldn’t quite see you up there but we heard the music and it was great.”

   I’m putting your albums on my birthday and Christmas lists! You really inspired me, my brother.

   God Bless,
   Dave Scriven

   Hey Mr. Wickham,

   I just have to tell you that I really appreciate the Instructional videos. God had told me to start playing the guitar, so I started to teach myself but I didn’t get very far until I came across your video teaching your song True Love. I started to just go through all your videos. They really helped me with how to form chords and strumming, they also just encouraged me to go deeper in worshiping God and seeking His heart. If anything I just really want to encourage you. Dude when you worship its like God is standing right there next to you; and you are completely focused on Him. I take this into worship to, when I worship its for Jesus to glorify and honor Him, to thank Him for His kindness and Love, and He responds! He comes in His Holy presence telling me His great Love for me. God has such great plans for you. I pray that you keep moving forward with the things God has for you. Also I hope this is ok I’m not that great of a guitar player so on the G#m I just bar on the 4th fret and use the Em chord shape. It was easier for my anyway. THANK YOU!

   I’ve been struggling to reconnect with the Lord after many years being adrift. Once you drift far enough from origin everything becomes misty and the reality of God and the hope He gives in Jesus becomes surreal. Just yesterday I was sick and miserable inside with conflict between just continuing as I am or trying to return to the Lord, if he would even have me. The fact is I miss His closeness. Anyway, I found myself on iTunes sampling various Christian songs, just searching for one that might help spark something inside, some lost reality, when I came across ‘Cielo.’ I was weeping and crying out to God before even the sample was finished. I promptly acquired it and listened to over and over, almost always in tears and prayer. I want everyone I know to get it. Thank you for being God’s voice in this. The song painted for me such a real, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual depiction of heaven that I felt all of my being long for God and his unthinkable kingdom. Clearly God led me directly to this song, It is was the spark I needed. Thank you.

   Phil,
   Once again I have been transported into worship through your music. I am the Music and Program Director at KSLW 99.5 FM in Buffalo Wyoming. I was driving when I was previewing your album and this song “Cielo” came on. Thankfully I was pullng into my garage, because I shut the door and wept! It is stunning !!! I told my husband, who is the sr. Pastor of Calvary Chapel here in Buffalo, that if I died, I had found the song I want played at my funeral! ha ha! I would want people to know that I’m in the presence of my Lord – do not weep for me! worship WITH me!!!
   It is just glorious and I know that the Holy Spirit gave you this song to share. It is a taste of heaven and it makes me think that forever and ever we’ll be feeling this same way – we just can’t sing loud enough, or bow low enough or raise our hands high enough!. Every moment in heaven will be a new revelation and a new delight. And every moment we’ll be pinching ourselves at the glory and grace that surrounds us for eternity! Needless to say, I put it on the station on HIGH ROTATION! as well as Coming Alive, Safe, Because Of Your Love. Great new album and I wish you much blessing and success with it! We have thoroughly enjoyed your other 2 albums and once again, you do not disappoint. God bless you brother!
