Welcome to the Burning Hearts Podcast! Our heart is to glorify Jesus Christ and draw people closer to Him through explaining Scriptures in a relevant and easy-to-understand way. Our name comes from two Scriptures: Luke 24:32 - They said to each other, ”Weren‘t our hearts burning within us while He was talking with us on the road and explaining Scriptures to us.” Jeremiah 20:9 - Then I said, “I will not make mention of Him, Nor speak anymore in His name.” But His word was in my heart like a burning fire Shut up in my bones; I was weary of holding it back, And I could not. The Burning Heart‘s Podcast with Pastor Michael Craft explores the Bible in an exciting way. We pray it ministers to you!

In today’s edition of Burning Hearts, Pastor Michael talks about the humility needed when you become a Christian. Sometimes God’s plans may not be what you think is best for your life, or what you think will be the most productive for the Kingdom. Sometimes, the things that God asks of you will be uncomfortable, and when that happens, you need to trust Him and obey anyway. Pastor Michael reminds you that God gives His best to those who humble themselves and ask for His will to be done.

What are the requirements for walking with God? You’ve accepted Jesus into your life, but now what? In today’s message Pastor Michael talks about how obedience is required in a relationship with God. Sometimes obedience doesn’t look the way that you want. Maybe you don’t want to go somewhere that God has called you. But, to follow God and to desire for His will to be done, sometimes we must be placed somewhere uncomfortable. God will be with you in every moment, so obey Him.

What type of person were you before you came to know Jesus? In today’s edition of Burning Hearts, Pastor Michael talks about how we are never too far gone for God. God makes it very clear that the punishment for our sin is death. But God sent His son down to take our place. We no longer endure the punishment for sin because Jesus did. There is not a list of sins that are unsavable, no matter how deep in sin you are, God still loves you, and all it takes is one step to get back to Him.

What is the Lord’s desire for us? In today’s edition of Burning Hearts, Pastor Michael talks about the Lord’s desire for us. It is so easy to worry about the world and to become anxious over life. But, the Lord’s will for us is much greater than we can ever imagine. It just takes one step for His will to be done, we just have to believe in Him. When He is what we lean on, and We ask for His will to be done, our trust is in Him. The Lord has great things for us, so put your trust in Him, and He will always provide.

Where do you get your nourishment? In today’s edition of Burning Hearts, Pastor Michael talks about how Christians need to spend time in the word with God. In today’s world, it can be so easy to replace God’s nourishment with worldly things, but to sustain a Christian lifestyle, we need to get our supplements from God. When we accepted Jesus, He becomes our cornerstone, He needs to be our source for life. We do this by going to Church, spending time with Him, and reading our Bible.

Have you ever thought about how much God actually loves and cares for you? In today’s edition of Burning Hearts, Pastor Michael talks about how God's love for us is never-ending. We often hear the metaphor of God leaving the 99 sheep for the one that was lost, but in reality, that is what God does. He loves us so much that He desires to be with us for eternity. He cares so much for us that He sent His son to die in our place. God will always be there for you, no matter how lost you are.

In today’s edition of Burning Hearts, Pastor Michael talks about how when times get hard, we need to be the example and confidence in the Lord. With the surge in technology, it can be so easy to take comfort in worldly items. But, as Christians, Pastor Michael reminds us that we need to set an example.

Are you an impatient person? Do you get frustrated when someone is not going as fast as you would? In today’s edition of Burning Hearts, Pastor Michael talks about how sometimes we need to wait on the Lord. The Lord will always answer our prayers, but sometimes not in the time that we expect. His timing is perfect, and we have no idea what His timing is. When we wait on the Lord, we make sure that His will is being done. As we go on pursuing God, let's make sure to work at His pace, because He is perfect.

Wow… what a great realization from Pastor Michael. You can’t work your way to salvation. You may spend a lifetime trying to work your way into heaven, but you will be disappointed because Jesus doesn’t want that. He doesn’t want you to make promises to Him that you can’t fulfil. He already did the work for you, by dying on the cross for your sins. He simply wants you to fall in love with Him. To be close to Him. To grow in relationship with Him. Today, Pastor Michael will empower us to draw near to Jesus.
