HEART OF A WARRIOR MINISTRIES

The Heart of a Warrior is a heart committed to the purposes of God with the intention of acting on those purposes in the way they live. Lasting transformational change in the lives of Christ followers is a matter of the heart. God honoring behavior is a byproduct of a heart aligned with the purposes of God. God's word, the Bible, is the surgical instrument He uses to transform sick hearts into healthy hearts. Once the heart is calibrated to God's standards men are better equipped to determine their God-ordained trajectory for their lives.

Currently, four journeys are offered. You will need Acrobat Reader to view a more detailed description of each journey.

Foundations of a Warrior,

This journey helps to establish a basic Christian foundation. The following topics are addressed; life in Christ, inner disciplines of a disciple, outer disciplines of a disciple, living in obedience to Christ, and becoming a life-long follower.

Phase I: Heart of a Warrior

This journey calibrates our internal compass, the heart, so it points to True North (Jesus Christ) so we will not lose our way in the storms of our life. Orienting your life by God’s standards will ensure you will not get lost along the way.

Phase II: Focus of a Warrior

This journey provides a personal map that will lead you to God’s purposes for your life. God has given us each a map to follow. With a calibrated compass and a clear map you will find the direction you should travel.

Purity of a Warrior

This journey helps men who struggle with pornography and sexual addiction. You will be given tools to help you live victoriously—move from bondage to freedom, from darkness to light, and from shame to honor.

If you are interested in taking one of these journeys please send an email to HOAWAdvance@aol.com. Include the following information …

Name, home address, phone, email address, and the journey you are interested in. Keep in mind that Phase I must be completed before you can start Phase II.
