In this conclusion to the Good Heart series, John, Allen, Stacey, and Alex share personal stories and practical insights on the Good Heart—including why so few believers are aware of this truth, what it looks like to live from a good heart, and how doing so transforms our self-image as well as our view of God and others.

If you believe you have a wicked or bad heart, then you will treat your heart—as well as the hearts of others—with suspicion, judgment, and contempt. But if you know your heart is good...well, that changes everything. In this second episode of the three-part series, John is joined by Fintan and Elaine Supple (therapists in Ireland and part of the Wild at Heart team) for a conversation on how the concept of the Good Heart plays out with God and with others in the chaos of daily life.

Do we really have a good heart? John and Allen take a fresh look at this question and the significant ramifications of how we answer it in the start of this foundational series. Many Christians still believe—and live under the false burden—that their hearts are desperately wicked. God, however, promises to set a new heart within us (Luke 15:8), and Jesus spoke of those with a “good and noble heart” (Luke 15:8). Discover the reality and the utter relief of the Good Heart in every area of life, including our self-image, relationships, calling, and walk with God.
