This sermon explores the condition and posture of the human heart in relation to God, building on previous weeks of teaching about the heart as the foundation of the Christian life. The pastor draws from Proverbs 4 to show that when God's word enters through our hearing and sight and takes root in our hearts, it transforms our speech, our vision, and our walk. A central theme is that a surrendered…
Pastor J.D. delivered a message centered on the truth that we do not simply see life as it is, but rather through the condition of our hearts.

The good news is that through salvation, we have…
