    We live in a world that tells us to "follow our heart." But what if the heart we’re following is broken, bent toward sin, and far from God? What if the very core of our being—our heart—is deceitful and desperately wicked?

    Go! And Examine Your Heart - Jeremiah 17:9-10 Jeremiah 17:9-10 (NLT): "The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?

    Let us look beyond the pleasantry of Christmas day this morning. Christmas will soon be over; and, for many they will go back to hearts filled with bitterness, hatred and burden. You see the hearts of humanity may appear to be EMPTY from post-Christmas

    Post-Christmas Battle for Your Heart David Tack – December 22, 2011 INTRO: Christmas is a wonderful time of year.

Love is the God-given proof that you are Christ’s disciples (John 13:35). This is a message about the future but it is also a map for the present. Since ...read more
