About HeartStrong Faith

At HeartStrongFaith, our mission is to deepen our understanding of the Bible and strengthen our faith in Christ. We are called to one thing, and that is to follow Christ. However, we won’t follow someone we don’t trust, we can’t trust someone we don’t know, and we can’t know Christ apart from His Word.

Through ongoing self-paced and small group study, we see women growing and flourishing as they root themselves in the good soil of the Gospel, gaining influence and impact for the Kingdom of God. We see the ripple effect extending through the workplace, the schools, our churches, and our social circles as women read, study, understand, and apply the Word of God to their lives. We pray that the Lord would bless this endeavor as we seek to glorify the mighty name of Christ Jesus.

Who We Are

HeartStrong Faith is a ministry initiative partnership with 90.9 KCBI and First Baptist Church of Dallas to produce women’s content that teaches women what the Bible is, how to properly understand it, and how to get the most out of their personal study so they can deepen their walk with our Lord Jesus Christ. We employ theologically sound Bible teachers who can passionately and articulately bring the Scriptures to life and show how these ancient texts are relevant to today’s rapidly changing culture.

Why We Exist

  1. Commissioned by Christ: Matthew 28:19-20 and Acts 1:8 record the final words of Jesus, a commissioning that those called by Him would be sent out to disciple, baptize, and teach.
  2. Called to Equip: Ephesians 4:11-16 teaches us that the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers are given to the Body of Christ to equip His people for the work of ministry. HeartStrong Faith will equip women to discover the beauty of Christ through a right understanding of the Scriptures, enabling them to discover their gifts and give back to the Body and expand the Kingdom.
  3. Encourage Growth: Paul exhorts the church in Ephesians 4:13 to “become mature.” HeartStrong Faith aims to move women from “milk” to “solid food” by teaching them how to study God’s word for themselves.
  4. Promote of Sound Teaching: We believe that the Holy Spirit is working in the hearts of His people, but uses pastors and teachers to build a bridge from our ancient texts to today. In Acts 8:26-40, Phillip is sent by the Lord to a desert road where he meets a eunuch from Ethiopia. The eunuch was reading a passage from the prophet Isaiah, and when Phillip asked if he understood it, the eunuch answered, “How can I unless someone explains it to me (8:31)?” Phillip responds by walking him through the Scriptures, and upon his understanding, the eunuch expresses a desire to be immediately baptized.
  5. To Deepen Our Faith: Romans 10:17 states that “faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.” Revelation 12:11 reminds us that the enemy is defeated by “the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony.” As we faithfully exposit the word and share the work of the Spirit in our own lives, the Spirit moves in the hearts of the hearers to respond.

Our Vision

At HeartStrongFaith, we see a fast-paced society that never slows down. It is our desire to lead women into a deeper, richer, more intimate relationship with Jesus than they ever thought possible. We are called to one thing, and that is to follow Christ. However, we won’t follow someone we don’t trust, we can’t trust someone we don’t know, and we can’t know Christ apart from His Word. Through ongoing self-paced and small group studies made available on the website, we see women growing and flourishing as they root themselves in the good soil of the Gospel, gaining influence and impact for the Kingdom of God. We see the ripple effect extending through the workplace, the schools, our churches, and our social circles as women read, study, understand, and apply the Word of God to their lives. We pray that the Lord would bless this endeavor as we seek to glorify the mighty name of Christ Jesus.

Why Now?

God’s plan for your life is simple: Follow His Son. But you won’t follow someone you don’t trust. You can’t trust someone you don’t know, and you cannot know Christ apart from His Word.
