“Dear Max, I told you Sunday of a man I had met at the men's breakfast the day before. His name is Captain Dave Hunt. He told me he was an 18-wheel driver from Louisiana who had made arrangements to move with some friends to New Mexico some time back. He said he had never been this way into the hill country, and especially through Kerrville. When he got here, "something” made him look up and he saw the empty cross and stopped. He called his friends and said he felt like he was to relocate here because "something” had touched him about this place. He found our church and changed his occupation in order to stay here. That's it in a nutshell but I'm sure his own words will be better. In HIs love”

“I have had a persistent cough for 20 years. Specialist after specialist, none found the root cause. Upon visiting The Empty Cross, my husband prayed for my healing as he and countless others had previously prayed. We cried and expressed our gratitude for His goodness. We then left to enjoy the rest of our visit to your area. Got home, went about our life and two days later my husband noticed I had not coughed. Having lived with it for so long, I hadn’t noticed myself. Hallelujah!!! I sincerely believe He healed me on the Holy ground of The Empty Cross that we had previously walked on. I receive His healing and I receive His grace. I am healed by the blood of Jesus and in His Mighty name!!!! A woman whom Jesus loves.”

“I just put a note by the HOPE statue. Pray for me to share with my husband my healing of an abortion we had 38 years ago. We said we would never talk about it, but I know now God wanted this secret of our hearts healed. Thank You for forgiveness, Jesus. Thank You for healing our whole family.”

"I learned more about God from your (Garden audio testimony) CD in one hour than I have sitting in church my entire life! My leg has really been hurting me and I told Gordon we needed to go to IHOP and get it fixed! Following the dedication service and your prayer, I noticed that my knee was not bothering me anymore. I wondered if the healing could be real and why God would waste His time on me. My knee hurt so bad I could not sleep at night and it felt like it was broken. It hurt so bad. So, I was amazed that it didn't hurt anymore. All week I tried to do things I could not do, but my knee was healed and I have no pain anymore!”

“My sister received healing of serious depression after we prayed together at the Cross on 12/26/12, and she is still feeling “herself” with not sign of depression to this day! Thank you Jesus for your healing touch that you have replaced her heaviness and grief with a spirit of joy and a garment of praise!”

“Hello Max, I'm not sure if you remember me? I'm the guy that put the rain gutters on your building at the front of the garden. I was also healed from Crohn's disease two years ago, after visiting the cross. And now, as of May 1 2016 I proposed to my new soon-to-be wife inside the cross. By the way, she said yes. It was her first time there she really loved it. She said the whole experience for her was very wonderful. Kudos for you building such a wonderful cross with such a beautiful view. I just wanted to give you an update on things in my life hope to visit soon.”

“We were going to relax in Port Aranasas, TX with friends, but had a check in our spirits. We were encouraging friends in Burnet to come to this holy hill. They didn’t come but will soon. Have major health issues. We left a prayer for them in the garden. We stayed the weekend and Saturday night. We met Becky, years young in the LORD, saved right here on this mountain. Her heart, seal and love for the LORD set a spark for a couple almost 50 years young in the LORD. I was healed Saturday morning of pain driving in the gate! Met Max Saturday and now soaking Sunday morning.”
