  Children Mentoring Verbalizing the Gospel

  UNKNOWINGLY PLANTING SEEDS

  My life has been a journey of mundane moments, mountaintops, valleys, and soaring times, all shaped by my hope in the Lord. I recall my youth, weary and stumbling, but also how God continually renewed my strength. His loving guidance, like a constant presence over me, has been my anchor (Psalm 32:8). Even in the mundane, I’ve witnessed His hand, especially during my high school years. In the 1980s, my days were filled with music, Bible quizzing, art, and babysitting—seemingly ordinary, but deeply significant. I was passionate about studying Scripture for Bible quizzing, memorizing verses from the New Testament, and reciting… Read More

  TRULY OVERCOMING HIS DISABILITY

  George Dennehy was born without arms in a Romanian orphanage. The workers there neglected him and he was severely malnourished. At 16 months old, he weighed just nine pounds. A Romanian doctor hung a death certificate on his crib, telling the nurses to fill in the date when the time came. But his life changed dramatically when he was adopted at 18 months by a family in Connecticut who believed in giving orphans a chance at a good life. And that family didn’t stop with George. He now has 12 siblings, and nine have been adopted from six different countries. His parents… Read More

  SHARING JESUS ON A PARK BENCH

  Wales Goebel is an example of how God can use someone to do great things, no matter how old you are. At the age of 39, Wales left a successful residential construction business, feeling God’s calling to begin a Christian ministry for students in high school and college. He worked tirelessly preaching The Word to these kids, and over the next few years, he saw several thousand students give their lives to Jesus. During these years, he discovered that some students would share very personal problems with him. Young girls would confide they had an unwanted pregnancy, and were looking for a… Read More

  Loss Of Loved One Verbalizing the Gospel

  THANK YOU, MIKE

  The Christian Heart ministry lost a very special person last month. Mike Whitten was a vital part of The Christian Heart since its very inception. He was always there to encourage us when times became challenging. He was our ministry's greatest cheerleader. He would always remind us that it was our goal to point people to Jesus. He was one of the most successful businessmen in Birmingham. But you'd never know it by his humble spirit. Mike’s generosity was amazing, always asking what you might need and doing his best to fulfill that need. He just loved to meet the needs of… Read More

  SINGING FOR THE LORD

  We have been sharing the hope of Jesus in song since 1982. It has been far from easy, and we didn’t even know music would be a part of our journey. My husband Bob has the ability to push things forward as a visionary, and one day he said to me, “Learn how to paint so I can sell your pictures. I want to sell something I believe in.” After that, we sold artwork for years. Later, when tragedy struck, we had to overcome fires and felt threatened as our character weaknesses were being exposed. A lack of profit margin at wholesale… Read More

  SURRENDERING MY LIFE TO CHRIST

  One week before I surrendered my life to Christ, I was riding my motorcycle home from the gym late at night. Glancing at my phone for a text notification, I didn't see the truck halfway in my lane until it was too late. The collision at 60 mph left me unable to walk for three days, but by God's grace, I escaped with minimal harm. Exactly a week later, I attended a prayer meeting an hour away from home. Through the prayers of others, God supernaturally healed my legs, prompting me to commit my life to Jesus. Repentance, I realized, meant more… Read More
