208. The Heart of the Matter: Understanding the Spiritual Core That Shapes Your Life

In this episode, we finally take on a subject we've referenced in countless episodes but never explored in full: the heart—not the organ, but the spiritual and emotional center that defines your life, your choices, and your walk with God.We lay out why the heart is one of the most mentioned concepts in the Bible (830+ times)—yet never once referring to the physical organ.From Proverbs 4:23 to Matthew 22:37, we show how Scripture points again and again to the heart as the center of our desires, morality, sin, and spiritual transformation. Garrett shares wisdom from mentors and Scripture alike, including a key quote: "If you work out your heart issues with God, all the other stuff takes care of itself."You’ll hear how:

• The heart is not just a sin container—it’s your desire center, where business with God truly happens.
• God doesn’t want your perfection—He wants your heart. And He promises to give you a new one (Ezekiel 36:26).
• Learning to align your heart and mind leads to right actions, clarity of purpose, and spiritual maturity.
• The heart must be constantly surrendered, examined, and renewed—not managed by willpower but by walking with the Holy Spirit.
• You must trade certainty for surrender to fully experience God's best for your life.

We also introduce a framework Garrett calls the Heart Management System—a cycle of repentance, understanding, and action—that helps believers grow in faith and purpose without falling into the trap of performance-based religion.Whether you're wrestling with desires, confused by what your heart wants, or trying to discern God's will, this is a must-listen episode. It’s raw, real, and full of practical insight to help you start doing the real “heart work” that leads to life transformation.📖 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” – Proverbs 3:5
