Heartland was born out of a desire to see the masculine heart restored to the body of Christ… to the Community. Heartland is not a ministry, but more a vehicle to express a way of life… to men, and those seeking true manhood… It is not evangelistic in nature, but is Christ Centered.
For males, being male is mandatory, but being a man is a choice. We do not profess to know it all or have the definitive answers. We do however believe that through encouraging men, and boys, into an intimate direct relationship with God through Jesus Christ, we can provide good, Biblical based road-maps to true Godly masculinity.
Core Values
* FAITH * FAMILY * COURAGE *
Heartland is a Christ-centered organisation dedicated restoring masculinity to the Body of Christ. This is mainly accomplished through our outdoor based and rite of passage events. Many men and boys have attended our events since 2006 when we first began with the Rite of passage events in the form of The Passed Thru Fire Experience.
Our Vision, Our Mission
Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love. 1 Corinthians 13
This is the Scripture at the very center of Heartland:
…Be on your guard…
A Man’s work is never complete, and he is called to be ever aware and alert, guarding both his heart and those he has influence over.
…Be MEN of Courage…(Act like Men)
We as males are called to “be men” and accordingly behave and walk ahead as men. (Walks like a duck, talks like a duck – must be a duck; men are called to lead by example) One of the greatest attributes of a Godly man is Courage; it is in our godly nature to walk in our calling with courage.
…Be Strong…
The kingdom of God is advanced forcefully by forceful, bold, strong men.
…Do everything in Love…
None of what we do will please God unless it is by nature done in love. God looks at our hearts, not at our actions or deeds for they are like “filthy rags” to Him. We seek to be men “after God’s own heart”
Heartland was not born to teach Christians to be Christian… Heartland exists to raise up the masculine heart of God within the body of Christ, to encourage men to be GOOD men and not NICE MEN. Being nice just gets people, God’s people, hurt.
This “raising up” is mainly accomplished through our outdoor based events and our rite of passage ministry. Many men and boys have attended our events since 2006 when we first began with the Rite of passage events in the form of The Passed Thru Fire Experience.
In the end, Heartland is not a ministry, but more a vehicle to express a way of life… to men, and those seeking true manhood… for males, being male is mandatory, but being a man is a choice. We do not profess to know it all or have the definitive answers. We do however believe that through encouraging men, and boys, into an intimate direct relationship with God through Jesus Christ, we can provide good, biblical based road-maps to true Godly masculinity.
