Just as no good deed ever goes unrewarded by the Lord, whether in this life or the next, no bad deed goes unseen by Him either. Nothing in this world is ever hidden.
Jordan continues to hold to hope for this world and His faith in the Savior never wavers. He has spent years being a tool in the hand of God to take His sacred message to those who sit in darkness, exhausting himself to the point that it has taken a toll on his health.
Still, God knows Jordan's heart and righteous desires, and the Savior continues to bear him up.
I join my hope with Jordan's and pray for the lost souls of this world.
May we always remember that we are never alone.

Jordan Update from Den!

KITCHEN FIRE

Jordan has asked me to update you as to recent events.  Wednesday, he was preparing dinner and something with the stove malfunctioned causing a fire.  In consequence, he was ambulanced to the local hospital where he was treated for third degree burns on he hands, feet, and some singing on his head and then released.  He had an appointment with his personal physician the following day after which he came out to my place for the afternoon.  He was in a great deal of pain but seemed to be able to do the things he wanted to do while here.  Currently, he is at home with fingers that are swollen to the extent that he in unable to operate can opener.

He is requesting your prayers for him.

We did go to the coast the day before all this happened (Tuesday) and had a great time and took a number of pictures;

Thank you for your love and concern for Jordan.  With his permission, I'll try to send out an update next week after his situation settles down.

 Out of the Closet Into the Light

After living a life of abuse, abandonment and homosexuality, Jordan Jantz made the ultimate choice. Leaving his old life behind, Jordan came to know and understand God's love for him, as well as discover his own part in the eternal plan.
But this book isn't just about his Christian conversion and lifestyle change, it is also about all the things he suffered that helped to bring him to this point. It's about everything he was, everything he is, and everything he is on his way to becoming.
Simply put, this is the story of his journey from the painful, cold darkness into the light.

A portion of the proceeds from Out of the Closet Into the Light will be donated to The Christmas Box International to support abused and neglected children.

Righteous Indignation and Judgements of the Lord

3 Yea, O Lord, how long shall they suffer these wrongs and unlawful oppressions, before thine heart shall be softened toward them, and thy bowels be moved with compassion toward them?

7 My son, peace be unto thy soul; thine adversity and thine afflictions shall be but a small moment;

8 And then, if thou endure it well, God shall exalt thee on high; thou shalt triumph over all thy foes.

D&C 121: 3, 7-8

15 ¶ Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Matthew 7: 15-19

We are fast approaching the day of the Savior's return, and the closer that day draws, the darker the spirits of men become - the spirits of some, but not all.

The Lord will always recognize His own. He will bless His true people, those who are pure in heart and prepared to meet Him. Those who are not His, meaning, those who possess evil, cruel, and dark hearts, will wither away before Him.

We live in a day when so many call evil good and good evil, and sadly, many who possess this mindset are supposed people of God, even members of His true church. Yes, they are members of God's church, yet they do not set an example of what a Christian should be. In fact, they are so far off the mark that their example is a shadow on God's church and brings missed opportunities to share the gospel of Christ with souls who may be searching, thus carrying on Satan's work.

But just as God's plans will not be altered, the Deceiver's reign will not last, neither will his minions continue to flourish. Each evil act they participate in to destroy souls only adds another layer of sure destruction to their own, and for them, there will be no escape, for their fate will be sealed. 

Jordan has had more persecution heaped upon him than most men could suffer, yet he continues in the faith. He soldiers on because he knows the Savior knows and understands his sorrows and griefs. The Master tread the winepress, felt the agony and the pain of each and every injustice, shed His blood in the Garden of Gethsemane for those injustices, then gave His life and sealed Himself as savior and judge. There is no changing that.

Jordan, God loves you! The Savior is walking by your side always, and angelic warriors stand armed and ready to fight for you and bear you up.

You will NEVER, EVER be alone!

Spring Bookfest!

Despite the opposition Jordan faces on a daily basis, God has continued to watch over him and has helped him accomplish more than he ever hoped. Long ago, Jordan vowed to turn his whole heart over to the Lord, and because of this, the Lord has comforted him during some of his most challenging ordeals.
Jordan still has many residual challenges, but he never lets that stop him from sharing the love of the Lord with others, mainly through his books. He has such a strong testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ because of the difference it has made in his own life. He truly is an instrument in the hand of God.

 Embraced

We are all writing the story of our life. We want to know what it's about. What are its themes and which theme is on the rise? People want to know where this book is taking them and where they are headed.

Not to spoil our heat-embracing ending, but I want to ensure that when the ending comes, it won't be shallow; I will have done something life-transforming for others through this book. This book is about that life-transformation we all want for ourselves. I began this book because I hit that point in my life. I became intrigued by people who had unearthed their true calling...or those people who were willing to try.

In this book, Embraced, nothing seems braver to me than facing up to one's own identity and filtering out the chatter that tells us to be something we're not. In this book I hit on an incredible well-spring of honesty. Complete strangers opened their lives and their homes to me, confessing honesty and events that had never been revealed to ordinary people. By that I mean they did not have resources of character traits available to them to give them an uncommon advantage in pursuing a better life.
When people heard this book's title, the most common question I got asked was, "So is your book about your life, or about careers?" and I'd laugh and warn them not to get trapped by semantics. I answered, "It is about people who've dared to be honest with themselves." When reading it, I know you will become embraced.

Broken Wings Ministry

North Star Conference

CELEBRATE WITH ME MARCH 16-18TH, 2017

AT THE NORTH STAR CONFERENCE IN PROVO, UT.

TRUETOHIM.ORG THE WORTH OF SOULS

How I found congruence and peace in the gospel. True to Him is about the worth of our souls. Visit truetohim.org

To all my brothers and sisters:

Please keep me in your prayers. As I vow to God during this season of my life, I make this vow not of my own merit or achievements, but based on God's abounding grace. I am enlisted in God's way for my life. I release my rights to God and let Jesus determine my life. His call to holiness will be my anthem. The Holy Spirit will be my map and my partner in this life. 

Again, True to Him is about the worth of souls.  My love of true friendship is God's blessing to me.

God's pleasure will be what I aim for in my life. I identify with Jesus in my conduct and in my heart, and to the ability to conform to Christ while I live out my life here on earth. Today I outwardly put on the heart of healing, that my actions may live up to my faith, and that healing may come through doing the right thing to others. Here and sincere will be my love for others. I will carry this oath of consecration, letting go of harmful things that hold me back in my life.

Let it go, let it go, let it go. My life is in Jesus, and His Holy Spirit is my map. Wherever He leads me, I will follow with a pure heart!

I encourage all of my brothers and sisters in the church to always remember that I love you, and it's my blessing to walk with you into this new year of our lives.

You all are not just a friend, but you are my brothers and sisters, and I thank you all for your prayers and for the time we all have been able to share on this earth. Let's all keep shining God's love to each other and grow in the love that He has for you and me.

I feel that this year's North Star Conference will be teaching a lot of thirsty souls, including mine.  Be where you belong; you will be glad you did, trust me!

Keep following the North Star, and it will lead you home to where you belong.

North Star is a faith-affirming resource for Latter-Day Saints addressing sexual orientation and gender identity, who desire to live in harmony with the teaching of Jesus Christ and the doctrines and values of the Church of Jesus of Latter Day Saints.  I found that this doctrine frees me from judgment of my own life and gives all authority over my life to Jesus Christ. I anticipate sharing God's love with my brothers and sisters who have been with me from the start at the North Star Conference in March in Provo, Utah.

Have a peaceful Easter and a happy spring.

Love, Your brother,

Jordan Jantz

Keep following the North Star. It will lead you home; at least that is how it was for me.  The road is long and narrow; don't let anyone through you off course...it's not worth it.
