Richard Twiss, i saw you speak here in Chiloquin last Sabbath and your words really touched my heart. I really needed to hear that message that day and feel God sent me there for a reason.

Thank you for speaking out and educating people. Keep up the good work.

May God continue to bless you.

why can't the Native community worship like Natives with drums??? If they lead African's to the Lord in Africa they still worship in their song and dance....why do people have to get so darned religious he is not advocating for a christian to have a spirit guide...He is a man who can understand both Europeans and Natives which gives him the capasity to do much good...

Thank you Brother Richard for placing your videos here on youtube. It is about time that the 'Adam' (earth/red man) is emerging. I am 'finally' coming to see 'Jesus' through the lense of the American Indian woman (I am Tsalagi, Northern Cheyenne and Lakota) and cannot forget the the Yehudi (I am also an Israeli citizen) Be well my friend.

Regardless of my circumstance, I am glad for Pastor Twiss and his ministry. I love my Red brothers and sisters and honor what they have to teach us all, and am honored to learn what they have to teach.

Like others who have posted here, I feel a more powerful connection hearing the Gospel through a First Nation persepective. I have never felt comfortable in typical white churches though I am a typical American mutt of European descent (mostly). On the flip side, since I have had little contact with First Nations people, I don't want to be guilty of patronizing them & their culture. So I am in a spiritual desert between a White wasteland and a percieved Native promised land which I can't enter.

@elijahakicita amen

also the bible doesnt talk much about taking care of the land and loving mother earth i think that many christian need to grow closer to nature as well as god this is also somthign they can learn from the native americans.

@ManyThunderingWolves i agree its like people associate christianity with being a stiff. lol this is why i have feared it for so long but this guy gives me hope.

[simplegrl11589]

i have always been inspired more from native ways than christianity i always felt more truth in their ways than the ways of my own people ... i always felt god more through music and nature than in a church... white people dont know how to be lively and open and joyful when it comes to god they think this is frivolouse lol. I am white and i see the light of god in your eyes and your people more than anyone else on this earth. You have helped me greatly just for being you.
