Here is the latest live radio show that we performed down at our local radio station parter, WLAF. We had the privilege of sitting down with special guest Mitch Pierson for a “pick and grin” style show. It was truly a pleasure and is definitely worth listening to the amazing talent that God is using in Mitch’s life.

The songs from this session include:

  • Carried To The Table
  • God On The Mountain
  • He Knows My Name
  • I Am
  • Never Been This Homesick Before
  • Please Forgive Me
  • The Lowest Valley
  • The Shepherd’s Call

We hope that it is a blessing to you and that you continue to give us your great feedback about the kinds of songs you would like to hear in the future!

Spoiler Alert: A New Book Is On The Way!

Posted on by

As we are closing up the year of 2012 I thought that I would blast out one last piece of HOG news for our devoted supporters and contributors! Read on…

After some rest and enjoying the impact the first book has made so far, I am happy to announce that I have begun and am in progress on the 2nd volume of The Everyday Word Compilations, titled “A New Way To Fight: Overcoming All Odds With God’s Love”. This book goes into detail about how you can overcome a variety of difficult situations and individuals that can seem to be coming against you in the worst seasons with the only thing that will prevail everything: the love of God!

Now that we are well acquainted with the amount of time it takes to write, edit, edit again, edit 20 more times, publish and promote I can give a fairly accurate date to which the book will be published.

Spoiler alert: The book should be out around July/August of 2013! We are very excited and ask that you continue to pray for strength and the words that God would have us to say!

 

Celebrating 100 Messages! More New Stuff, And Stuff That’s New :)

Posted on by

I am happy to announce that I just finished editing my 100th message last night! When I first started working in the audio editing of messages it proved to be difficult as I had never worked on editing just speaking/preaching before. What did I conclude overall? That I’m long-winded (just kidding lol)! Seriously speaking however, I can only conclude that I am so thankful for the body of people that support me in my ministry and at our local church.

If you have ever been to our messages page, you know that there is the ability to organize by series. Having this many messages and them categorized by series got me to thinking, “Why not instead of just cds of preaching that we begin to offer DVDs of messages by series?” With this special idea at hand, it inspired me to get it in the works! You will soon have the ability to acquire the Heart of Grace DVD video testimonials as well as messages by series. We are also happy to announce that with the expansion of our music and message ministry is creating a higher demand for music and speaking. I’m very VERY excited to announce that we will finally be offering messages and books in our upcoming merchandise section!

Stay tuned for what God has in store, it’s gonna be great! God Bless You ~ Jared

We just wanted to say that we had a blast hanging out with John down at WLAF radio. We hope to come back sometime soon to continue with our ministry partners in furthering the message of the word of God and the healing power of music! We have posted the interview with live songs all in between.

The songs include:

  • All I Really Want
  • Didn’t I Walk On The Water
  • Give Him The Glory
  • My Home
  • Shout To The Lord

We also talk a little bit about how it all began and the history behind the ministry that God started in our family long ago. In addition to that there is also a bit of information about our ministries new book, Using God’s spiritual Glue: Becoming a Stronger, Spiritual Self and Sticking To It. Enjoy!

The First Book Has Begun!

Posted on by

I write today with some very exciting news. After much reading, writing and research….the pursuit of the first Heart of Grace book has begun! So far we are now laying out pages and content and trying to make it as useful as possible! The only hints we’ll share today is that we will begin releasing a series of books based on topics that we feel are very “right now” for people that are in need of a simple yet fulfilling word of the Lord!

On a related note to this (just to testify a little), I remember growing up in school and going through it always thinking “I’m not good at writing”. The truth is, when it came to writing about things I wasn’t fully knowledgeable on, I was probably right. When we first started out the web site, I remember thinking about “how are we going to offer something to people that they can use?”, and no sooner than that God began to help me and lead me into things to begin to write and speak on. There has not been a day that when I have sat down to dedicate time to work for this dream that God has not helped me with it every step of the way.

We will be making this available in paperback and on the iTunes book store (and maybe amazon) when the first volume is finished. I’ll try to keep the rest a surprise until we get it complete! Pray that we have the time and resources to pull it together by the end of this calendar year! My goal (and prayers to God) is to have our first release of a book by Christmas!

More Features! More To Do! More To Come!

Posted on by

We hope that you have been enjoying a lot of the parts that have been rolled out lately. We have came so far from where we started. I wish I had saved a screenshot of what the site looked like in the beginning compared to where we are now! Our main goal as a ministry is to provide as many avenues that we can that you will find something that will draw you closer to God. So let’s talk about some of the things that have been going on!

More features:

Books! I decided a little while back to incorporate the books section because it’s always hard to find a good recommendation with millions of choices. We thought it would be a great idea to simply put out there the books that we read that we actually enjoyed (and save you from the ones we didn’t so much lol). There will be books that we loved in the past and ones that we are currently working on now that will continually be posted as we move forward!

Verse of the day & What To Study Today! I don’t know how much more of a convenient way that you could make it to actually give a verse to read and a study plan to conquer the bible in a year, but we found it and made it available to you! As we all know, the tricky part is actually doing it! Trust me, as a person who loves to read the bible and to learn more and more each day, it is a fun experience and well worth the time you spend to do it!

After The Fact & The Everyday Word! Now that these are in full swing, we truly enjoy getting these out there. If someone reads a thought or an idea that inspires them to go out and be a greater witness then the intent was completely fulfilled! With so many different types of pieces that you could read, it’s almost like coming to a buffet; you can sort of choose what style you enjoy and get that word you need for the moment!

More To Do:

Outreach! As we are starting to come around the next bend in our ministry, we are committing to participating in ministry to one of our local nursing homes. It will be a mix of singing and speaking, and we hope to lead all that we can to the Lord. Sometimes we think that we have to wait for those great big opportunities before we’ll ever jump out there, but there is work right in front of you!

Sermons & Messages Pages! We’re now on iTunes! And now that we are implementing these new parts, we are phasing out the old message page and converting to our new sermons page. This will have a easier look and feel and incorporates far more than what I could write right here! Be sure to subscribe to our audio podcast by using the email subscription link in the top right corner! You’ll be emailed every time a new sermon is added!

Radio! With the great effectiveness that the radio ministry set us up with, we are hoping to expand where we are in our town and to start moving out to other stations. Pray with us that we make the right choices so that the message we carry goes out as far as it possibly can.

More To Come:

Recording! We have finally got all of our equipment and song selections fine tuned, so be prepared for some posts in the future with some demo previews of some officially recorded content! I personally cannot wait!

Writing! One of our big goals for this year is to begin to start compiling our works into a book that can be distributed by hand, so be sure to check back in for updates for that! It’s going to be a very exciting project!

Outreach! As God leads us, we’re going! We hope to see you soon! And if you don’t see us, you’ll more than likely get a chance to hear it on the site! That’s why it’s here!

A Prayer Request

Posted on by

I would like to thank everyone for their continual support in the work and ministry that God has performed through us over the past few months. The radio ministry has grown leaps and bounds. The online ministry has expanded far greater than we ever thought. The CD distribution ministry came out of nowhere to shock us too! It has been such a blessing, and we feel like that we have grown so much and have learned so many lessons along the way. I am speaking for just me, but I know that I could say that for everyone involved in the ministry of Heart of Grace.

As we start to seek God and prepare for the next chapter in the ministry, I ask for your prayers. Help us pray that God would send us where we need to be, and to be sent places where we can be of help. I for one am so excited, and I cannot wait to see what God has in store! Keep us in prayer!

New And Upcoming Web Content!

Posted on by

As of today, we have added 3 new features that you may or may not have noticed in the past few days:

1) Verse of the day – This will simply be a random daily verse for you to enjoy! It has the ability to be played back for you (if you have your sound on), or you can click on the verses to go and read more!

2) Where are we next? – This shows any places that we will be within the current week! If you are interested in seeing where we will be beyond the current week, just go to our events page!

3) Where to study today – This is adapted from the “read the bible in a year” plan, and shows the daily chapters to pace yourself reading if you would like to continually refresh yourself in the word of God each year! It’s worth it if you try it!

More features coming soon! God Bless You!
