What Is "Hearts Up"?

"Hearts Up" (ISSN 2155-5826) is the official, monthly, free e-publication from Keys To Understanding Life. You do not have to subscribe as we make each edition available to you from the website. "Hearts Up" places a spotlight on concepts and spiritual dynamics germane to discipleship beyond the elementary teachings of Christ (Hebrews 5:11-6:2) in that it deals with issues associated with real-life application and transformation during trials. The overall goal of "Hearts Up" is to encourage each of us to grow in our relationships with God by increasing our awareness of:
 

1.   When and how Satan attacks and the old self seeks to assert itself during trials.

2.   When the Spirit is speaking to our hearts and seeking to counsel us concerning
actions we must take in our new selves during trials (i.e., based on who we are in Christ).

3.   Our potential, in Christ, to use God's various "keys to understanding life"
during real-life trials.

In addition to articles on practical application and various spiritual dynamics in real-life, each edition keeps you from having to fish around the website looking for new material. "Hearts Up" will let you know when the latest tools and materials are available from the authors of the Keys Series books and when new postings and changes are made to the Keys website!

Key Words

A quick but poignant examination of key words or phrases, from the Scripture.

captured by the original languages (Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek), but which
we sometimes miss or overlook with our English translations.

The Bible's Bigger Pictures

These enlightening snapshots provide greater understanding and appreciation for how
various pieces of the Scriptures are put together,
and how that relates to us in terms of everyday application.
Examples include:

-    What are the relationships between the Old and New Testaments, and how do
these relationships apply to our relationships with Jesus Christ, if at all?

-    What are the historical aspects of the Old Testament supposed to mean to us
as believers living so many years later?

-    What are the various ways God has related with humanity? And why?

-    In what ways have God's interactions with us remained the same? And why?

-    How can we recognize Satan's activities more clearly? Are there patterns in
Satan's attacks which might somehow be useful for us to observe?

Hearing The Hymns


Are you listening to what you are singing?

and heartfelt observations of songs we often sing,
as well as songs sung by our predecessors.

we sing about to our everyday situations and trials.
