Visit Our YouTube Channel Print This Update June 9th, 2025 A Heart For Revival’s Ministry Update Current Support Level: 44.6% We have placed two beautiful pictures of Alaska in this email. A couple fun facts about our Alaska trip: our average day time temperature since our arrival has been 48 degrees. As of June 9th, sunrise is at 4:14am and sunset is at 11:37pm, but it never gets fully dark in-between those hours. TO EVERY THING THERE IS A SEASON Ecclesiastes 3:1 “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” Every thing has a season. Every thing has a purpose. Praise the Lord for His divine order in every thing. With that said, each of us gains a renewed trust and deeper faith in the goodness of God in every thing. Let’s remember to praise Him today and always. OUR CURRENT SEASON Many of you already know that my (Justyn’s) current season is one of back and forth illnesses and many ministry cancelations. We suppose the root cause was mold...
Recovery Update June 27th, 2025 This may be the last solely recovery update email. The next should be a ministry update. We’ll see. 🙂 It’s been a week since surgery. I can’t believe it.

Before I expound in a simple manner, let's establish this about the endgame. GOD IS THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF ALL THINGS. I MUST KNOW WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS, AND I MUST REACT ACCORDINGLY. PRESENT CHANGES WILL BE REQUIRED AS WE FOCUS ON THE ENDGAME. Let's begin. I. What is the endgame of sin? James 1:14-16 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
