For over 30 years, Heartlight has shared articles to help people live for Jesus in everyday life. While we are no longer publishing new articles, this enduring collection features relevant pieces throughout the year to encourage faith, offer biblical perspective, and speak to real-world joys and struggles.

Servant!

Phil Ware reminds us that the Jesus vibe is about being a servant and helping others, but he also reminds us that there are powerful memories in the Lord's Supper to help remind us of this thought.

Jesus recalibrated greatness and changed it from being fame and notoriety to kneeling and using a basin and towel.

A Charcoal Fire & the Smell of Redemption

Phil Ware continues his Saved at Sea series focusing on Peter's denials, his promises, his arrogance, his failure, and his restoration.

Why make someone relive his or her sin, why not just ignore it?

When the Way Out Is Through

Phil Ware begins a series called Saved at Sea which focuses on God's deliverance and truth found in the stories about the sea and rivers and water in the Bible.

What do we do in the middle of our challenges and problems with no plan in sight?

The Pentecost Challenge

Ron Rose is back at Black Rifle Coffee Company and visiting with friends about Pentecost Sunday and knowing each other's names.

We long for the day when we know fully, even as we are fully known!

Resurrection 2.7: Let the Clouds Remind You!

Phil Ware continues his series on Resurrection 2.0 and focuses this week on Jesus' return in the clouds which is guaranteed by his resurrection from the dead.

As followers of Jesus, the clouds hold a message of hope for us, not just a warning.

Thanking God for Our Women of Faith

Demetrius Collins and Phil Ware lead us in a virtual, DIY, worship through words and music using YouTube videos to call us to give thanks for the godly women of faith in our lives.

Many of us have experienced the goodness of God through the life of a woman of faith who helped shape us and mold us in our personal walk with Jesus.

Resurrection 2.5: Sarcastic Ridicule

Phil Ware continues his Resurrection 2.0 series reminding us this week that Jesus' own family did not believe until after his resurrection.

Jesus knew the sting of sarcastic ridicule and unbelief from his family

Resurrection 2.3: Unless...!

Phil Ware continues his series on Resurrection 2.0 and focuses this week on Thomas.

If Jesus was truly raised from the dead, then this new reality would call for Thomas to radically re-orient his life

Resurrection 2.2: Sometimes, I Doubt!

Phil Ware continues his series on Resurrection 2.0 focusing this week on the doubts of early disciples, and our times of doubting sometimes in our world.

Do doubts mean I don’t believe?

Resurrection 2.1: In the Breaking of the Bread

Phil Ware continues his series on Resurrection 2.0 and the vital importance of Jesus' resurrection for our life as his disciples today.

What if this song speaks the truth about Jesus' promise to meet us in our world today?

Cruciformed #6: The Gamble

Phil Ware continues his series of insights on living the CRUCIFORMED life Jesus calls all disciples to live on his way to the cross.

As Jesus journeyed into Jerusalem that last time, he had reached the point where he was going to gamble everything on the cross.

Cruciformed #4: Only by Prayer

Phil Ware continues his series of posts from the discipleship section of Mark chapters 8-10, this time focusing on the boy the disciples of Jesus could not heal.

Unlike the father of the boy with the tormenting spirit, we don’t confess our unbelief and then ask for help in believing more is possible.

Key Resources for Resurrection Sunday, Holy Week, Commission and Ascension Sundays

Phil Ware shares some great online resources for images for Holy Week and Resurrection Sunday.

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched.

Kicked to the Curb? Good!

Ron Rose talks about how everything he and Lyn set out by the curb was reclaimed and reused by someone else, which is what God has done with us when we have been broken and discarded.

Holy ground — without brokenness, there would be no healing or hope or grace. So, thank you, Abba, for reserving a place for us, just for us, at the curb with you.

Prayer and Mission

Mark Frost continues the series on discovering your mission before finding your minister with the Interim Ministry Partners team and he focuses on prayer.

So if they didn't and couldn't, how dare we?

What is CORE: Finishing

Phil Ware brings his series on 'What is CORE!' to a close, giving us a short summary to help us remember these three CORE passages and what they teach and call on us to do.

I remain convicted that these passages give us the CORE of what we must believe and practice as Jesus' disciples.

What is Core: Communing

Phil Ware talks about what is core to our faith and then ties it to everyday meals as well as our celebration of the Lord's Supper and the things of first importance in 1 Corinthians 15:1-7.

When we gather in Jesus' name, something transcendent happens: the Lord is present with us!

Let God Love You!

Max Lucado reminds us to accept and receive the love God longs to give us.

Do more than try to hang onto love. Let's God's love Hang on to you!

God of Fresh Starts

Max Lucado reminds us that the God of hope gives us fresh starts just as he did to Noah with the olive leaf and the dove.

Hope is an olive leaf — evidence of dry land after a flood.

What Is Core: Believing

Phil Ware begins a series of messages on what is core, or what is at the heart of what we must believe and do to be true disciples of Jesus, today.

What is most important for us to believe and do as disciples of Jesus, today?

Eating and Leftovers

Phil Ware reminds us that our times at the Lord's Table should be filled with the same kind of people who joined Jesus at the table when he was on earth!

Why the connection between Jesus and 'the leftovers' and why does the modern church not have the same relationships?

What Is CORE? Jesus!

Phil Ware stops at the mid-point in his series on What is CORE to review and look forward to what is ahead.

How do we know what passages of Scripture are most essential?

Tough Decisions and God's Precious Gift

An aunt reflects on her niece's birth to a mom out of wedlock and how precious she is and so glad she was born.

What would you have done?

Connecting People of Other Cultures with Jesus

Phil Ware continues his series on 'The Andrew Effect' and connecting people with Jesus, this time focusing on including people of other cultures, races, and languages.

Are we willing to take the risk and reach outside our comfort zones to connect people with Jesus?
