#GivingTuesday: The Family Tree Maker

If you watch television for very long, you’ll see advertisements relating to building your family tree and learning about your family’s heritage. In fact, my husband and I have been working on our family trees for several years, uncovering some unique details about our ancestors, many of whom we’d call “trend-setters” because we can easily follow certain traits through the generations. There is no doubt that God has played an important part in our families as far back as we can trace and, if truth be told, you’d probably find the same in your own family tree.

hgim-familyHeart of God International Ministries is a family tree much like your family tree … it began in the heart of God (no pun intended) and has grown one branch at a time, each representing a new ministry (or family, if you will). Each ministry has its own leader, much like the head of the household, prayerfully leading that particular ministry as God opens and closes doors to accomplish His purposes. Over the years, HGIM has grown to include the India ministry family (Heart of God India), the Africa family (Heart of God Africa), the Haiti family (Heart of God Haiti), the military family (Soldiers Bible Ministry), the Israel family (Heart of God Israel), our online magazine family (JournEzine) and so on.  You can see by HGIM’s family tree that the branches continue to grow as the tree fills in, enabling us to reach more people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

As we look to God, our Family Tree Maker, we trust that He will make a way for His will to be accomplished wherever He sends us. As we embark on new endeavors, knocking on doors that may be opening and prayerfully seeking the Lord for those He would add to our “Family”, we pray that you will join us by prayerfully supporting this family of ministries known as Heart of God International Ministries.

#GivingTuesday is your opportunity to join with us in celebrating the work God is doing. We thank God for you and your willingness to parter with us in the spreading of the Gospel to the farthest corners of the earth … all for the glory of God and the expanse of His “Family”!

Love in Christ,

Jan Ross, President
Heart of God International Ministries

About the Author:

“We are debtors to every man to give him the gospel in the same measure in which we have received it.” This quote by P. F. Bresee sums up the motive of Jan’s heart. Whether through her speaking, teaching, pen and paper, her trusty laptop, or music score, spreading the Gospel is of paramount importance. Whether a Bible study, devotional, short story, poem, website copy, testimonies, or new songs from the depth of her heart in worship, the presentation of the Gospel creativity flows from her heart with passion, purpose, and proof that the Lord is the central focus of her entire life. Jan’s heart beats in constant rhythm of encouragement for today along with hope for tomorrow based on her love for the Word of God, His Body, and those who have yet to hear the the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
