Helping a friend - Changing the World

If you listen to CCM then you know who Matt Hammitt is. If you don't then let me share. He is the lead singer of Sanctus Real, but more importantly, he is Bowen's Dad. Bowen was born with a heart defect and through the families struggles they have begun a new organization to help other families. Here's the scoop on how you can help them help others...


Hey everyone, its Matt from Sanctus Real. As a result of the medical struggles we've faced with our son Bowen over the past year, my wife Sarah and I have started Whole Hearts Foundation to assist other families with children suffering from congenital heart defects. We are currently in the running to win a $50k grant from Pepsi, but we need your help. We have to get voted into the top 10 at refresheverything.com in order to win. We have one week left.

I'm asking you to join us in the final week of our campaign to win Whole Hearts $50k, which will help us support families with children suffering from heart defects!

You can follow our progress under "leaders" at refresheverything.com. We're currently #26 and we have ONE week to advance 16 spots. Here's how we'll do it...

Vote everyday online, through text and with Power Votes found on Pepsi products.

Send daily reminders through Facebook, Twitter, text & email encouraging other people to vote online & via text. Ask them to spread the word too!

A major key to winning will be encouraging people to use "Power Vote" codes found on Pepsi products. They'll get us hundreds of extra votes!

When you ask...

Jesus to use you, be ready! I knew when I completely surrendered my life to Christ that it would be a challenge and not easy. (Romans 7:25) Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature[a] a slave to the law of sin. I honestly thought that I had no comfort zone, but it seems that every time I get "comfortable", God changes the direction in which I am going or He intercedes personally by allowing me to encounter a life that is going through a struggle, and it "interferes" with "my life". So I have come to the understanding I will never be comfortable, and I am becoming OK with that. I have also come to realize that if I am in a state of being comfortable, then I am not growing spiritually. (Psalm 119:2) Blessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart Last night during Bible study as we were going over the passage in Ephesians 4,...

Discipline In Discipleship

Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior is easy. We learn at a young age that Jesus is knocking at our hearts and is asking to enter in. We sing songs of God's love. We so very quickly accept God's forgiveness when we sin. We can justify our actions through Jesus loving us as we are. Following Jesus as Master and Teacher is hard. Again, we learn at a young age that the world is a cold, cruel place. We view hatred on TV and social media. To forgive when we have been wronged is almost impossible. To put another person's needs before ours is practically unheard of. To understand someone else's actions takes too much effort. Jesus never said being a follower would be easy. As a matter of fact, he said that it would be a narrow road that few would be able to travel. "S o in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you,   for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.  “Enter through the narrow gate.  For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to...

Inside Outside

Why do we view sins as not so bad, bad, and really bad? I have been thinking a lot about this over the past week. Isn't sin, sin? Are we to judge as God judges? God's word says; "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." -Romans 3:23 My sins, and they are many, are not better or worse than yours or your neighbors - or anyone else's for that matter. So who are we to pass judgement on another? Why spew contentment and hate when we know what another person's sin is? Isn't God's forgiveness and love for them just as much as it is for us? There is no "them" and "us" in the eyes of God so we need to stop dividing people up into these two categories. " Dear friends, let us love one another,  for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God  and knows God.   Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.   This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son  into the wor...
