Most people understand the importance of monitoring the physical condition of their heart.Jesus taught that the spiritual and emotional condition of the heart is what’s most important in this life.

The Heart of The Matter

May 5, 2024 • Ethan Mitchell

In order for us to understand God, he gives us a lot of word pictures in the Bible about who He is and what He came to do for us. God calls himself "Father" and those who believe in His Son... "Children." Jesus is called the "Groom" and the church is called the "Bride." The church is also called the "Body" and Christ is called the "Head." The Apostle Paul takes this word picture of the body and uses one anthropological word to help us gain where we need to be to grow in Christ... the HEART. Come Sunday and learn why the heart is not only the center-point of our physical survival but for our spiritual survival as well!

Only two words exist in the language of appetites: MORE and NOW, especially when it comes to how we view money and possessions. Jesus has a different perspective. He encourages us not to store up our treasures on earth, but instead to store our treasures in heaven. There is a very real battle between what we want now and what we want most, and we have a choice to make—will our hearts be set on NOW or LATER?
