I read your article "Fasting: A Study in the Scriptures" through the ChristianTopics.com web site. I just wanted to thank you for writing such an informative and comprehensive study using Scripture as the main focus!

Subj: Thanks for info
Thanks for your Web site listing funders of Planned Parenthood. I am pleased to see that these organizations and companies support such a valuable resource for women's health....
By the way, cute photo of you at http://dianedew.com/milwjour.htm -- and as a journalist, if your report of the circumstances is accurate, I agree that your employer was entirely unjustified in firing you for refusing to sign that statement. I only wish you had gone to mainstream legal counsel instead of the pro-life movement for support, because the issue could have been cast as a First Amendment issue of concern to all Americans, not a pro-life cause of greater concern to conservatives. Your boss would have been wrong to demand you forego your free-speech/association rights over ANY public policy or other issue. My guess is that the ACLU would have taken your case, which would have driven the point home, since ACLU also defends abortion rights -- and would have been a bigger slap in the face of the newspaper. Best wishes.

REPLY: Those who fund Planned Parenthood support the largest abortion provider in the world - and will stand before God one day to answer for the millions of lives lost with that blood money.
Subject: Some Christian you are!
From: happyflwrgrl@yahoo.com
How convenient for you to profit from your ridiculous self righteous, not to mention small, ideas. Where does this money go? Do you feed the hungry? Help the homeless? Put it towards some ridiculous abortion bumper sticker for your mini van? Or gee do you pocket the money diane?
REPLY: What money are you talking about? My books are available at cost (printing plus postage) -- a ministry (gift) to the body of Christ, not a for-profit endeavor. Yes, I "feed the hungry" and "help the homeless," -- even lived at homeless shelter myself for awhile, during my son's cancer treatments. And no, I don't have a "mini van," but a rusty old clunker the transmission's about to go on -- it was free, given to me so I could get to my daily radiation treatments -- yes, my son and I both have had cancer, in the past couple years. I have no savings account, never owned a home. I've been a single mom for over 20 years (not eligible for government freebies). I don't know why the tone of your E-mail is so offensive -- I can only imagine you are very unhappy (despite your screen name, happyflowrgrl). You obviously don't know how much Jesus loves you. I understand your misery, though, because I was once there - before He gave me a reason to live. I pray you will find his peace and true joy and love. -- Diane Dew

I just 'stumbled' into your site and must tell you that from the first thing that I read, know that YOU are a treasure!!! BLESSINGS TO YOU DEAR SISTER!!! I love the study on the second coming of Christ, and appreciate so much that you have been able to put in a very simple format what THE BIBLE says. In reading your format, THERE IS NO CONFUSION, just the facts!!! THANK YOU!!!
I live in Seattle and will probably never meet you, but when we get to be with the Lord, I'm going to look for you........I want to meet you for the simple fact that I feel so very close to you in spirit. I'm going to print out your study and wrap up in a quilt with my bible and notebook and SOAK for the rest of the afternoon, but I had to drop a line and say hi, and to say THANK YOU!!!!

I just wanted to thank you for your website. I work at a place where the Watchtower has a strong presence. I know some of the Scripture that proves the deity of Jesus, but the information on your website is a treasure. I have been witnessing to two of friends here who have not found Christ, and the Scripture references on your site will help me put on more of God's armor, so that I will be better prepared to answer some of the questions those friends have asked concerning the Watchtower.
I thank you with a glad heart and praise our Lord for your good work! Until we meet on that Great Day, I pray for your continued strength in the race that we run. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ guide you always.

Subj: Incredible!
Dear Diane,
I've just stumbled onto your website and I and blown away by your faithfulness
and dedication to God's word. I thought I was a teacher of the Word, and
you have knocked me off the map. The way you clearly and understandably sort
out God's word on all these subjects is nothing short of inspired!
Did you do all this research yourself? I looked everywhere for a biblical treatise on Christians and drinking. The only place in the entire web who dealt with this in the Biblical sense was you. God bless you. Our prayers are with you and we pray for God's best for your life. You are a female Walter Martin. You have a gift for professing God's word. You take the hay out of the loft where the cows can reach it.
Thank you for your sacrifices and all the hard work you have done to make our jobs of reaching the lost that much easier. As soon as I can, I will order the complete collection of your commentaries. I will also recommend your website to all my fellow workers in Christ, this is a must have for any serious evangelist. Your coworker in Christ...

Scripture
From: rsp4@home.com (Randy Peterson)
Hi Diane:
Just wanted to let you know that I read your answer back to the Catholic
who accused you of attacking the Catholic Church. I commend you on your response.
I was in a similar situation at one time. My wife was raised Catholic (as
a matter-of-fact, she had never been in a non-Catholic church ever until
she was age 35). I told her that I could never be Catholic (and that I did
not want our daughter to be raised Catholic, because that I felt there were
too many wrong teachings in their faith that was not Biblical. Of course,
I never expected her to just accept my feelings on this, but was glad that
she was open to allow God to use me to show her examples of God's Word vs.
what the Catholic church teaches. I'm happy to announce that we are happily
involved in a non-denominational Christian Church where God's Word rules!!!
Your page is a wonderful site to visit, and I commend you again for a job
well done in lifting up God's truth!!! May God continue to use you in a mighty
way, and bless you always!!!
With Christian love, Randy

Hi Diane... I'm thankful to God and you how you overcome of such things like depression. I only just read your article regarding on "Depression: A Study in the Scriptures". What I like most is that it is all related to the scriptures and how you going to overcome depression by the Word of God. It is the perfect prescription for having a depression.
I tell you frankly, it really helped me alot and I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to you. I also had gone with depression and I learned something from you. And I felt better now. I am now encouraged because of your good reliance with the Word of God. Keep it up and who knows... maybe there are people will be needing you help.

I have read your outline a couple times and prayed. I then determined to not let this cloud get the best of me. I tried to think of others. It helped a little. I still feel alone, but it is not as painful as the past few weeks. I confessed my feelings to the Lord. God heard me...

She thinks it is bad for her son to be dwelling on God's word and anyone who is a christian. Thanks to her I have found a new web site to share with other friends.

Subj: Faith of a Little Child
From: Justaservn@aol.com
Hi Diane!
First of all...THANK YOU for sharing this wonderful story with me, not to
mention all the other nuggets I came across on your website. I feel like
someone that just stumbled upon a treasure, while scoping out a cave! lol
The reason I am writing is because of something that happened this morning. I thought it might interest you. I am married, with four sons, ranging from 2 to 14. I was sifting through my mail this morning, and came across this letter. As I opened the site, and read the story about the green trike, it made me think of the various times MY sons walked in that type of faith. It didn't occur to me that it was about happen again so soon!
Just as I finished the story, and began to feed my curiousity with all the other "link choices" on your site, my son Joseph, ( 8 ) came into the room, apparently stressed. Joseph HATES bad weather, and we have had a lot of it since the wee hours of the morning. He gets this real concerned look every time he hears a thunder clap...and sometimes he buries his head in his pillow til it is gone.
He came up to the puter and asked me to ask God to make the thunder and lightening stop. Well, I remembered reading the forecast, and according to the weatherman...(who is NEVER wrong...lol) it was supposed to be this way all day. But, realizing the past record with Joseph's faith...( which is incredilbe...you oughta see this critter pray! It's like he has this direct line to God, that most of us strive for in a lifetime! ), I cuddled him into my bosom, and prayed with him. But, I have to admit, in my natural mind, it seemed like a tall order. I figured that we would just have to "ride it out." Well, after the prayer, he went his merry way, looking more peaceful than when he came.
So, I continued to surf your storehouse, and after about an hour, it hit me... No thunder. In fact, there wasn't a single clap since our prayer. That was about 10 am this morning.. It is 12:17 now, and still no thunder, despite the continual succession that was taking place BEFORE the prayer.
<Sigh> We sure have a lot to learn from those lil guys, huh? Thank you, Diane, for the story and for the gentle reminder, that it takes the faith of a child to know what it is really like to pray and believe.
In Christ!!

I read your testamony last night, I must confess that I have looked at a few of your sights but I hadn't really read any of them in debth I have browsed a few things but I mostly looked at all the lights and animation and colors, music and stuff. last night I read your testamony and I thought you were talking about me. It all sounded so familliar I won't tell you everything but I am the youngest of fivr children and when I turned 15 my parents forgot my birthday. I have strugled with depression and thoughts of suiside for many years. When I was in highschool I went to bed almost every night with a knife to my stomach with the intent of killing myself. Every night Jesus talked me down and I lived one more day. He promised me that things would get better and they eventually did. I rarely ever have an episode anymore but I can really identify with your life. I am glad you have found the answer in Jesus. I just wanted to say thank you for all you are doing. I am praying for you and your famliy and will continue to do so and if I can ever do anything else let me know

Will she be getting treatment or was it in the early stages?

p.s. I am right now addressing issues of the Trinity within my own church and then trying to answer a United Penecostal friend who believes in "Jesus Name Only" and that the trinity is a hoax of the third century to cover over a personal problem. The local church put an ad in the local paper offering a $1000 reward if anyone could prove the existence of the trinity. My discussion with him began before this offer and while I am surprised and disappointed they took such a tactic, I am still going to try to work to lovingly show the truth through God's Word. The "Jesus Name" issue is the single biggest issue this denomination seems to deal with, I have many friends there and I know what they are saying, primarily based only on Acts 2:38, but I don't agree.

Sister, I just stumbled on your site from the WJD webring list. You are a jewel in God's crown that is being polished. Suffering seems to be something that has drawn you to the heart of God. I look forward to reading more on your page. I was wondering if I could link specific articles to my page. I have a section on suffering's challenge and would like to link your testimony and that of your brother at least to that section. Before you answer, I know you'll want to see my webpage. Its address is www.geocities.com/Heartland/Acres/7895
Thank you for sharing of yourself and what you have learned of our wonderful God. The Lord bless you richly with His presence this week.
Your sis in Christ,
Barb Irwin

I would like to have a copy of all these studies. The Lord has greatly blessed the body of Christ through your work in making these studies available as you have. The topics are very familiar to the body of Christ but to have them all together certainly is partaking of the fruit of your labor. I am a pastor of a Pentecostal Church and I believe the necessary action for today is to return to the basis principles of what God has said. We need to speak what God has spoken. We need to confess our position as it is stated in the Word of God. I will be in prayer for you concerning the cancer. Also I will give your name to our intercessory prayer group. May you be blessed in the name of the Lord. ... Diane we will continue to pray!

Dear Mrs. Dew,
Hi! I am a teenager in Pittsburgh PA and I recently visited your web site. I thought it was wonderful! You are not only a servant of the Lord, but witnessing in His name a terror that is so real in today's society.
I have not even begun seriously dating yet, and don't really plan to for a while, so I have not been faced with anything like abortion. I go to a Christian High School where we talk about it a lot. It is something I've always felt strongly about. Have you ever read C.S. Lewis' "The Screwtape Letters?" I strongly recommend it. It is hard to explain in few words, but basically it talks about the devil tempting us through convenience.
I truly hope you are well, and doing fine. God speed in your future endeavors.
Sincerely,
A. McLaughlin

Subject: Suicide
"You will never realize how awesome I felt when I opened your web page and read your story. I have a story all of my own. I took a bunch of pills and spent a night in the hospital and a week in Charter. I had been a Christian since I was 6 but it never sunk in what being a Christian was. I had tons of head knowledge but it never connected to my heart."

Subject: Loneliness
"I am very touched with your testimony. I was reading several scriptures about loneliness ... I love the way God talks to us through people .... That night in Church the sermon was about loneliness. I felt like crying because I knew God was talking to me. He touched me very deep."

"I really love, and enjoyed your web page. I am 13 years old, and yesterday, I gave my life to the Lord, and now he is in control. It feels so good to know I have someone that loves and cares about me. My whole family is very religious, and I know they care about me a lot!! But, it is a greater love that I am feeling in my heart now. I believe that you did a very good thing by making that web page. It has helped me alot!"
From: Kikbox6 @aol.com
"I am 15, a Christian since I was 7.When I [read your story] I had just been in a huge fight with my parents. Reading your story made me realize that I don't know how good I have it. Two wonderful, Christian parents who love me. I know that God is really touching a lot of people with your story."

"...your web site... was perfect! I just happened ;) to get an e-mail from a friend of mine (in the same bunch of e-mail!) saying how lonely he is. I sent him the article of yours on loneliness and some words of encouragment..."
From: TAGGY116@aol.com (Carol Sue)
"Yesterday I used your 'loneliness' essay to share a part with a young married woman who is homesick. That part I shared was: 'We can choose to take advantage of our time alone and embrace it with a godly purpose..for uninterrupted prayer...' (and) 'It is alone, in our place of deepest need, when we can turn to none other, that God meets us.' I shared some Scriptures with her also...."

"I got your link just at a time in my life when I was thinking of taking my own life (yesterday).... your story is so much like mine... Please pray for a clear mind for me so I can find the same peace you have."
