Celebrating 30 Years of Heartlight!

See highlights from 30 years of Heartlight and plans for the future of this ministry.

 30 Years of Heartlight
"The real danger of legalism is that it produces a sense of attainment that short-circuits our call to live the life of Yes thorugh Christ. Self-achievement brings a false sense of assurance that somehow we can live a pure life in our own ability. This attitude ultimately leads us to cut ourselves off from the heart of God and, in turn, to deny our true identity in Christ."
— David Edwards

"The very best and highest attainment in this life is to remain still and let God act and speak in you."
— Meister Eckhart —
"A continual looking forward to the eternal world is not a form of escapism or wishful thinking, but one of the things a Christian is meant to do."
— C. S. Lewis —
"A passion to obey Christ is born out of our relationship with him. The more we love him, the more we want him to be a part of our affairs."
— Calvin Miller —
"The reason that most major goals are not achieved is that we spend our time doing second things first."
