INTRODUCTION
wHAT!?
Welcome to this first issue of New
Heart Nation. I’m excited that you
have read this far and taken the time
to peruse the often boring and tedious
second page where the magazine
editor writes for too long on what the
magazine is about in the hope that
you’ll keep reading it. Even now you
may have reserves as your precious
time is wasting away reading about a
magazine you opened with intentions
of reading in the first place.. so I’ll
stop.
BUT before you flick through the
following wisdom-filled pages allow
me to quote to you from an ancient
book I came across some years ago
that changed my life. The author of
this section, Ezekiel, wrote something
rather important on behalf of God
Himself.
new heart
“A
also will I give
you, and a new spirit will I put within
you; and I will take away the stony
heart out of your flesh, and I will give
you a heart of flesh.”
We, who are unapologetically bent
on pursuing life from that new heart
promise, thought Ezekiel’s words
sounded like a really good deal. And
it’s our bigger hope that this significant
nation of Australia will experience
this very same phenomenon
