Testimonial

“As a talk radio host, pastor and friend, I can tell you that Cyndi Desjardins Wilkens is the real deal! I have interviewed more than 10,000 authors and guests since 1992. Here is what I know about Cyndi. She is a beautiful sister in Christ, who has the ability to help each of us look ourselves in the mirror and ask the question: “Lord, if this was me, would I trust you like Cyndi does?  Thank you, God for using Cyndi to teach me to trust you more!”
