Welcome to Journey On!
This is the newest
venture of the Journey to the
Heart office: keeping you updated on a
regular basis! Every month we'll be
sending out this email newsletter with

We pray that this will become an
encouragement and a blessing to you!
Trials to Triumphs: A Changed
Heart!
"The beautiful
and tranquil setting of the
Northwoods removed all distractions and
enabled me to wholeheartedly focus on
God. I had not expected Him to work as
powerfully as He did. There are just so
many ways that He touched and changed my
life.
"In the middle of the week I felt
discontent, restless, and
frustrated. my team had
completed all the ungodly heart
conditions, but my own cold and distant
one had not broken yet. My guilty
conscience tried to tell me that I'd
already been changed and broken. However,
I was to meet God in a powerful was later
that night."
This is the testimony of a young lady
searching for a heart after God. For the

Life to Life: What
Happens?
"What happens in the midst of
the Christian journey when sight is
ripped from your eyes and you are
ruthlessly left blinded and stunned? Me?
I tried desperately to cling tightly to
the Lord's hand knowing that if i let go
of it, for even the slightest moment, I
would be completely lost."
Reflections from the life of
Brooke Martens. For the rest of
her thoughts:

Lights for the Way
"What should I read?"
"Where am I supposed to find good music?"
Those are questions I ask myself a lot of
times, and some of you may wonder the sme
thing. This little spot is where we try
to answer those two vital inquiries.
We'll be featuring different books and
CDs that we consider "Lights For The
Way," or, in other words, tools to
encourage us and help us stay on the path
of holiness that God has called us to.
With Christmas coming up quickly, some of
these would even be good for gifts!
Ministering Melodies: Higher
Ground
The CD that we want to highlight
is from one of our favorite music
sources: the Steve Pettit Evangelistic
Team. Their music varies in style and
theme, and it speaks to the heart,
whether you enjoy light and cheery music,
or thought provoking words and melodies.
The CD is called "Higher Ground" and with
the penny whistle and guitar playing a
large part in the instrumentation, it has
a delightful Celtic feel to it. This is
one of Mr. Gothard's personal favorites,
and it's filled with great songs such as:
O Love Divine, Free From Guilt and
Free From Sin, Be Thou My Vision,
and many more!

The
Right Kind Of Reading: A Secret
Hope
Finding books that are not only
edifying, but also enjoyable to read, can
be a hard task sometimes. But one book
that we think will bless you is the book
A Secret Hope. "What is the
purpose of my life? Why am I here?" These
were the questions that Ria Zebua asked,
and God answered in unbelievable ways!
This unassuming little book contains the
capturing story of a woman who had a
vision, and had the faith to trust that
her God could bring it to pass!

Stories to Enjoy: An
Unexpected Night Intruder
We were sitting in the
office, going about our daily business,
when Sharon's phone rang. Not out of the
ordinary at all. She looked at the caller
ID, it was the Northwoods Conference
Center, also not out of the ordinary. The
story that she heard from the other end
of the line...... well, ordinary would be
the LAST word to describe it!!
