You are currently running the risk of a quiet, devastating spiritual heart attack. Taking this class will permanently disrupt your routine, shifting your faith from a series of passive, empty motions into an intensely focused devotion to Jesus Christ.
In this deeply convicting study, Dr. John Barnett warns that spiritual heart failure does not look like an outright, explosive rebellion; it is simply the tragic state of Jesus no longer being first in your life. Dr. Barnett compares this to his own physical heart attack—a sudden, suffocating sensation of an elephant sitting on his chest, followed by a conscious wrist catheterization where he watched his own winding arteries on a massive screen. Spiritually, we suffer this same life-threatening constriction when we claim we "don’t have time" for Bible reading, prayer, or scripture memorization, all while devoting our daily schedules to doom scrolling, playing video games, or watching music videos.
The ultimate life change of this class comes from a radical realignment of your concentration. Using the powerful imagery of dating and marriage, Dr. Barnett reminds us that we are engaged to Jesus. If an engaged person spent their time putting their arm around everyone else in the room, it would be a scandalous betrayal—yet we do this spiritually every day with our worldly distractions. This class challenges you to become "selective and aggressive" with your focus, making Jesus the absolute, supreme ruler of your heart.
You will leave this session with a renewed passion for spiritual discipline, realizing that the Savior doesn’t merely monitor your works; He actively collects your prayers like precious, childhood love notes, holding them in a golden bowl right in front of His throne.
