The Renewing of the Mind

In enjoy discussions with people in regards to the heart, I often come to the point of sharing that the Christian life is all about living from the heart and if we don’t have something in our heart then we don’t have it. There are many scriptures where Jesus shares this. Out of the heartContinue reading “The Renewing of the Mind”

Revival of the heart

Lately I’ve been listening to a number of teachings speaking about revival. It occurred to me that the understood definition of revival was a place that was having an outpouring of the spirit where signs and wonders were occurring and this place was usually church building and /or gathering of people. When we look atContinue reading “Revival of the heart”

A heart to give

Yesterday my son was playing with his Mega Blocks and said “I’m going to make you a robot”. He then proceeded to put together a number of blocks forming a simple rectangle two wide and five high. When he handed it to me, I couldn’t have been more proud. No one else would have beenContinue reading “A heart to give”

A Father’s Desire

My son currently is in a phase of usually saying 2 word sentences. For example Green straw, is said like “Green draw” because he can’t pronounce ‘s’ yet.

What is the Heart?

It astonished me when I realised that the word “heart” is used in the bible over 750 times, and yet, most people would probably struggle to give a definition for the heart, and I personally can’t ever remember it being explained in church. Apart from the obvious heart in our physical bodies, What is theContinue reading “What is the Heart?”

The Beginning of a Heart Journey

I personally find it very easy to live my life, following the same daily routine, without questioning or challenging my assumptions. Well… I guess that’s why they are assumptions. But sooner or later something comes along that doesn’t fit and no matter how hard I try to push it down it just keeps resurfacing. IContinue reading “The Beginning of a Heart Journey”
