About Rekindling Hearts and Homes

Rebuilding the Altar - One Heart, One Home at a Time

​

My Story: When the Fire Was Rekindled

​

There was a season when I looked around and saw the pieces of a broken family - the pain in my son's eyes, the distance in my marriage, and the emptiness in my heart.  I realized the life I was living was shaping not only my character, but also my destiny.

​

That was my turning point.

​

On my way to a new job, I started listening to Focus on the Family on Word FM every morning.  What began as a background noise became a lifeline - words of truth and hope that softened my heart.  Peace began to replace fear.  Conviction followed. Slowly, I laid down old habits  - drugs, drinking, distractions that dulled my spirit. 

​

Each surrender felt like placing another piece of my life on the altar, where God rebuilt me from the inside out.

I didn't know it then, but He was rekindling more than just my own heart - He was preparing to rekindle my home.

​

THE MEANING BEHIND THE ALTAR

In the Old Testament, the altar was where sacrifices were made and God's fire fell - the meeting place between heaven and earth.

Today I see the altar as a picture of the heart - the place where we surrender, repent, and let God's fire burn away what no longer belongs. 

​

When we rebuild the altar within us, we make room for his presence to dwell again - and when one heart catches fire, it spreads.  

​

First to our homes.

Then to our communities

Then to the world.

​

THE HEART BEHIND THE MOVEMENT

Rekindling Hearts and Homes was born out of the transformation - my own altar experience.

​

The ministry isn't just an organization; it's a movement of faith-filled homes.  It's a call for families to come together again - to pray, to forgive, to worship, to laugh, and to make room for God's presence in the middle of real life.

​

Through the Transform blog, family activities, resources for daily faith and eventually retreats,  we help rebuild what the enemy has tried to scatter - one spark, one step, on surrendered heart at a time.
