Watching Over the Heart is An Emerging Author Selection from Metokos Press. Books in this series are written by new authors whose work is worthy of being discovered. This book by Rev. Mike Sharrett, attempts to examine the problem with the heart, how the gospel sets the heart free, the nature of the heart's warfare, how a healthy heart works and how a grace-filled heart triumphs over some of life's stumbling blocks. "Clearly, compassionately, cheerfully, Mike describes how God makes this miraculous heart-change happen," says Paul Settle, a pastor-at-large in North Texas. To communicate his message, Sharrett uses extensive references from the New American Standard Bible and English Standard Version, and includes a Scripture Index at the end. Topics covered in this volume are divided into four parts, "The Heart Understood," "The Heart Set Free," "The Heart at War" and "The Heart at Work." In the author's own words: This book attempts to uncover the biblical explanation for our apparent disinterest in the beauty of the Lord, who is undeniably the most glorious, weighty person in the universe. Don't we know that, at least to some degree? Deep in our conscience, we know it has to be true, but if we truly believed it, I maintain that we would be impressed much more consistently with His character and abilities. The tragic fact, for me anyway, is I remain much more impressed with many other things. My goal in this book, therefore, is straightforward: to help you take your place with the psalmist who knows, "God is my exceeding joy" (Ps. 43:4); the sage who reflects, "Nothing I desire compares with you." (Prov. 3:15); the Apostle who says, "To live is Christ, to die is gain" (Phil. 1:21); the king who claims, "your love is better than life" (Ps. 63:3); and the singer who confesses, "my soul longs for you." (Ps. 42:1) Said another way, the invitation of this book is captured by the psalmist's words, "Let all who seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee; Let those who love Thy salvation say continually, 'The Lord be magnified!' " (Ps. 40:16) Ideal for personal devotions, study and prayer, Watching Over the Heart is reflective, persuasive, biblically grounded and practical. In a winsome style, Mike Sharrett warns of dangers and challenges to the Christian heart, and provides insights to help you grow in faith so that you may intellectually and experientially answer in the affirmative the question, "Are you deeply impressed with God?"
