We don’t know those who are genuinely searching to know Christ from the pretenders who are really there to destroy. There are subtle signs that say

“First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.” Matthew 13:30 https://sharinhearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MM_2026_10_17_Wheat-and-Tares.mp3 Jesus uses the example of wheat and tares to show that believers and unbelievers will be rooted side by side, serving, singing, and even teaching. Often, we are spiritually unaware of the invasion going on around us. We get comfortable with the programs, traditions, activities, and routin

“Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my anxieties; and see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting” Psalm 139:23-24. https://sharinhearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MM_2026_10_10_How-Great-is-God.mp3 David doesn’t see God as a historical figure or a distant entity; he knows Him as his creator who formed him in his mother’s womb.

“For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ (which ascends) to God, (discernible both) among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, to the latter one an aroma from death to death (a fatal, offensive odor), but to the other an aroma from life to life (a vital) fragrance, living and fresh” 2 Corinthians 15-16 – Amplified Bible https://sharinhearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MM_2026_10_03_Garbage-Removal.mp3 A sweet, pure smell can awaken your senses, draw you to another p

It seems that there’s a lot of wishy-washy living in the Christian society today. What causes our wishy-washy living? Matthew 7:24 says that a wise man, who hears God’s word and does what His word says, is like a man wh

"The older women admonish the young women to love, be discreet, to be chaste, good, obedient homemakers, that the word of God may not be blasphemed" Titus 2. https://sharinhearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/MM_2026_09_19_The-Old-to-Young.mp3 There’s a trend in the culture to do away with the old, do away with history, do away with the old-fashioned ways of living.
