To learn more about hosting a conference in your area, contact director@healinghearts.org
We will also be offering a special conference in Eastern Michigan (Detroit area), titled "For Moms Only: Getting to the Heart of the Matter", to help moms walk in faith, peace and grace in their parenting. Moms are very important to God's plan of discipling teens and young adults in Christ!
Speaking of discipleship...over the past year we have received incredible testimonies in regard to the First Love Bible study for young women! As moms and other female mentors have led young women to know Jesus as their 'First Love', we have heard these stories:
An older cousin leading her younger cousin to salvation in Christ.
A sexual abuse victim and her mom found hope and healing in Jesus through both the First Love and The Hem of His Garment Bible studies.
A rebellious runaway came back home, and her heart slowly, but surely softened as she saw Jesus' love for her in comparison to the "love" of the man she ran away with.
Students at their home school co-op learned to turn from selfish ways to sharing selfless love in Christ with others AND they learned how to share their testimonies for the first time!
A young woman thought her "good works" were good enough, until she went through the First Love study and learned that God's grace through Jesus' finished work on the cross was what she really needed; she gave glory to God in her testimony at her recent baptism.
One last story we want to share with you comes from a 23 year old youth leader, named Ashley, who led six young women through First Love. Ashley had already been through The Hem of His Garment with one of our Healing Hearts leaders. When she heard about the First Love study, God put it on her heart to lead a group of young women to find the same hope and healing through Jesus and His Word.
Jesus commands us in Matthew 28:19 to go and make disciples. In Healing Hearts, we are seeing this disciple-making happening before our eyes. All of our Bible studies present the gospel of Jesus in a powerful way. People who come through our ministry also learn how to live in such a way as to make other disciples. The Great Commission is being fulfilled through Healing Hearts every day!
As the school year approaches, we want to encourage you to take the opportunity to join with God in what He is doing in the lives of students by leading young women through the First Love Bible study.
