As 2019 approaches, Heartwise continues to ask for God’s will as we prayerfully move forward. Thank you for your prayer and financial support.  Following is an update on current programs and needs. God is leading and blessing.

The Biblical Prescriptions app has launched! The app is available for download in the App Store and via Google Play. Two worship tracks are completed. One worship track will also serve as our worship intervention in the physiologic study on worship. Ten minutes of Biblical worship changes the physiology and brings Christ, the source of eternal healing, into our lives. To my knowledge this is the only worship/health app currently available. The app is also a portal for the services of Heartwise.

This year a Latino ministry has been developed. Heartwise, along with Dr. Flores, has developed a website. The ministry is being marketed to Latinos through social media, planting seeds for the gospel.

Kamran Mukhtar, our evangelist in Pakistan, is conducting home Bible studies and distributing Bibles. The people are responding under difficult circumstances.

Heartwise is conducting seminars kicking off small group evangelism with the seven-week study Biblical Prescriptions for Life. The last seminar we conducted was held in Melbourne Florida, just a few weeks back in November. This approach, equipping local churches with tools for church growth, is catching on.

We are still producing the television program, Ultimate Prescription. The older television and radio programs are running on various platforms worldwide. Many are coming to the website for prayer and health information.

The Biblical Worship Research Study, evaluating the genetic and physiologic consequences of worship, is moving forward as God provides.

In 2019, in addition to developing existing programs, Biblical Prescriptions for Kids will be developed based on the content of the adult seven-week study. The content will be kid friendly and serve as a tool for families, home-schoolers, vacation Bible schools, and others who serve this age group.

This ministry, as you have read, is doing much locally and worldwide. We are asking for your prayers and financial support. We live in exciting times and thank God for allowing us to participate in spreading the love of Jesus. We all have bad genes. I am thankful for a healing Savior.
