ABOUT US

Faith for the Heart is a digital Christian magazine inspired by the Lord's love 'for us' and dedicated to His Glory.

We currently publish our Christian Life, Fan Fiction and Interviews quarterly. We have contributors who provide other material far more frequently. Our contributors can publish daily, weekly or monthly.

For Christians, Faith for the heart is an instrument of unity. Our writers share their knowledge, experience and wisdom with our brothers and sisters in Christ through true fellowship.Our reader's can actively engage our Authors in thoughtful discussions regarding the subject matter of their articles. Our readers can discuss and ask questions to gain greater clarity of the subject. Through fellowship we grow stronger. We are one heart. His heart. We are one spirit. His spirit. We are one kingdom. His kingdom.

Although Faith for the heart is a Christian magazine written for Christians, Faith for the Heart is open to everyone, both Christian and Non Christian, who respect our beliefs. We want to share our lives and beliefs with everyone. We hope that by getting to know the disciples of Jesus and His word, Non-Christians will have a better understanding of who we are as Christians. Through this greater understanding we can all live and grow together in peace. Our writers moderate the discussions about about their published articles with full discretion to NOT publish any comment(s) they believe are inappropriate.
