“Your thoughts matter. Drop a line and share your reflections.”
In this heartfelt teaching, we explore the Tin Man’s cry from The Wizard of Oz—“If I only had a heart”—as a powerful picture of the human condition without Christ. Like the Tin Man’s hollow chest, every person is born with a God-shaped emptiness that nothing in this world can fill. Using vivid imagery and scripture, this message shows how Jesus offers not a repair job, but a brand-new heart and a new spirit, just as promised in Ezekiel 36.
When the Holy Spirit enters a life, the echo of emptiness stops, joy rises, darkness lifts, and love becomes alive within. This teaching journeys through Psalm 51, John 3, Mark 7, and other key passages to reveal how Christ replaces the stony heart with His own life and nature. If you’ve ever felt empty or hollow, discover how Jesus makes the heart truly come alive.
