An Interesting Request!
August 31, 2009
Last week we issued a Call to Men to send posts to HeartLife! While our ministry is not gender specific, many of our main writers have been women. Due to the response we have had – we hope that will change – and we will have both the male and female persepctive in the future on a regular basis. One person who heard the “Call” was my nephew Avery Kyle – following is his respose to that call. In fact, it is a “call” to men – if you are inclined to join his blog – his e-mail information is listed at the end! read more...
Guard Your Heart! by JON JONES
August 30, 2009
We are continuing with great posts from the male perspective! Jon Jones is back again with a message that is something we all need to think about. I’d like to give a shout-out to Jon and the entire Atmosphere of Heaven team who brought a little bit of heaven to Apostle Nina Marie Leslie’s birthday celebration (wasn’t that a great testimony that the sister from Tulsa gave -hearing your worship helped her make a life decision) – awesome! read more...
