It sounds like an impossible task. The concept of “turning the other cheek” goes against everything we’re taught growing up: to stand up for ourselves, to hold our ground, or to “fight like a man.” Backing down is often...
“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’ But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.”
Matthew 5: 38-39
We could go on and on with case after case and situation after situation proving the same thing – relationships, divorce and remarriage are very complicated. So how does a divorced Christian navigate remarriage? Now don’t miss this: If...
“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.” Matthew 6:14-15
What does the Bible say about divorce and remarriage? Is it allowed? Why or why not? This is an incredibly complicated and personal subject but one that Jesus had quite a few things to say on the matter. You...
"(Jesus) I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery." Matthew 19:9
George Wright Sr. was a long-time supporter and original Board Member of Right From The Heart Ministries. He was a major inspiration to his son, Bryant Wright, our founder and CEO, back in 1992 to create this ministry and spread the Gospel through broadcast media and the then-new “Intranet”. George Sr. was a tremendous encourager to everyone who knew him and was greatly admired and loved. A memorial service will be held at Johnson Ferry Baptist Church in Marietta, GA on Saturday, August 10. The family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made in his honor to either Right From The Heart Ministries or to Young Life.

Many who are part of our Right From The Heart
family may not know that I have been the Senior
Pastor of Johnson Ferry Church in Marietta,
Georgia, for the last 37 years. A few months ago,
I felt the Lord leading me to begin the search
process for my successor, which as I’m sure you
can imagine, wasn’t an easy decision to make!
But, it was clear to me that God was the source
of this change, so the church began the process of
searching for God’s man to follow me in the role
of Senior Pastor. I’m very pleased to say that Clay Smith
has affirmatively answered the call to become the next Sr. Pastor at JFBC.
“So,” you ask, “what happens to Right From The
Heart after you step down from pastoring the
church?” Well, I can assure you of one thing:
I STILL PLAN TO LEAD RIGHT FROM THE HEART!
I’m excited that I will have more time to focus
on our mission to “Reach and disciple people
for Jesus Christ through the use of media.” God
has blessed this ministry in so many ways, and I
know that through your continued prayers, your
financial support, and our dedication to be good
stewards of what God has graciously allowed us
to do, we will be able to reach even more people
with the Good News of Jesus Christ!
In addition, I will be adding new aspects to our
ministry at RFTH in leading Bible study tours to
Israel and Paul’s missionary journeys, as well
as mentoring younger pastors. I humbly ask for
your prayers for all of us at Right From The Heart
as this transition takes place. Thank you and
may God bless each of you!
