The Heart of God

A few quotes from John Willis Zumwalt's book: Passion For The Heart of God:Making : His Heart Completely Yours. 

John was the speaker at Perspectives On the World Christian Movement class at Eastbrook Church in Milwaukee Wisconsin on Monday, January 21st.

Here are a few quotes from John's book.

"God is so pleased when He finds His heart beating in another." -Steven C. Hawthorne

"We will not be able to seek the mind of the Lord until we receive His heart." Loren Cunningham

"We all want to do the will of God, and we k now that there is nothing nearer to His heart than the evangelization of the world."- Oswald J. Smith

"I firmly believe our greatest problem is not a lack of faith or a lack of  more teaching or a lack of better organization, but our failure to fulfill the desire of the heart of God in obeying the great Commission." -Kingsley Fletcher

"I am convinced that every person can be given the compassionate heart of God. the heart of God is for the people of the world." -Bobbye Byerly

"Let my heart be broken by the things that break the heart of God." -Bob Pierce

"Is it possible to get close to the Master's Heart without getting close to the Master's mission?"
-Larry Moyer

"His Heart goes out to the masses." Keith Green

"We are never closer to God than when we share His Heart for the unevangelized." - Patrick Johnstone

John's Bio and info on Perspectives our first class

Go to Orange TAB Class one to see John's Bio.
You can also see each speaker's bio in upcoming classes.



Lesson 1:  The Living God is a Missionary God.

A few thought provoking statements of John in the class. All paraphrased by me as I heard John and understood it.

Bible studies are good...making good Christians better Christians.

We are the visible representation of an invisible God to people in the world.


We are to be "light" in the darkness. Light shines better and more visible in the darkness.

As we move into dark areas of the world...we mature in our faith.
Where did Jesus go? With sinners...
So, find your darkness (your area of ministry) in the world and charge in!

If you for some reason...can't physically go...you can pray.

How to be involved right now...without physically going!
