As we switch over to John’s gospel, chapter fourteen, the subject of having a healthy heart comes to the surface. Of course, the heart we are referencing is the spirit of a man and not the human blood pump. But, there are parallels between the two. You know when Dr. Christian Bernard performed the first human heart transplant, [we are talking about ‘healthy hearts’ today] the medical world basked in the glow of human achievement. Sick and dying people were given hope that in receiving a brand new heart, their lives would be extended. As great as this is, it pales in comparison to what God has done for His kids. He has been in the heart transplant business for a much longer time and, unique to His surgery, His patients live forever. When a new life enters the world, a new heart enters the world as well. There is no life apart from a physical heart. So it is with the Jesus follower: the believer receives a new heart when he says ‘yes’ to Jesus and receives a new life in Christ Second Corinthians 5:17 style. If any man be in Christ, he is a new creation and with it he has a new heart.1 In this week’s podcast, we look at aspects of our decision making that keeps our heart super healthy, vibrant, and strong — ‘Biblically Secrets to a Healthy Heart in God’ — that’s our focus on this week’s Light on Life.
