Because Your Heart Matters Joe M. Carroll

I have known Joe for many years and we have ministered together in the local church and in conferences in the developing world. I have been impressed with his speaking ability and now I am enamored with his writing acumen. Chapters 8 and 10 are worth the book. The book is a gift to believers everywhere. - Steven P. Troxel, M. Div. Founder ? Shepherds? Support Former Senior Pastor Wayside Evangelical Free Church San Antonio, TX In these rich reflections, Joe Carroll helps us reconnect our hearts to God?s heart. The insights and stories illustrate the gospel with a capital ?G?. The application of the Gospel, as Joe says, is that ?following Christ involves carrying a cross and not a broom?. The effort to continually clean up our lives with our own ?broom? is exhausting. Applying the cross and the true Gospel that this book explores is liberating. -Mark S Lewis National Director of Field Integration. The Navigators ?Because Your Heart Matters? speaks volumes of our deepest need, to know our own heart, and God?s heart toward us. I recommend this book to all who are willing to peel back those protective layers we have covered our hearts with, and connect our heads with our hearts, perhaps for the first time in our lives. -Richard N. Goad, DPM Associate Professor Department of Surgery Scott and White Healthcare/Texas A&M College of Medicine ?Because Your Heart Matters? is a look at something most of us avoid looking at, done in a positive and inspiring manner. A quick read, well worth your time. - Acie Johnson, Founder Biblical Leadership for Excellence
