In this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan unpacks the biblical concept of the heart through both spiritual and psychological lenses. He presents the heart as comparable to the subconscious mind–the internal space where belief systems, emotions, memories, and intuition are formed and stored.
Dan explains how the heart is “programmed” through revelation, repetition, and trauma. While healthy inputs can establish truth and stability, harmful programming can distort a person’s identity, self-worth, and behavior patterns. These internal distortions often manifest in destructive cycles that feel difficult to break because they originate at a deeper heart level.
Drawing from various scriptures, Dan illustrates how the heart functions as a central interface within human design connecting body, soul, and spirit. He emphasizes that true transformation begins when heart beliefs are brought into alignment with God’s truth, allowing healing and restoration to flow into every dimension of a person’s being.
The episode concludes with a reminder that heart transformation is not meant to happen in isolation. Dan highlights the vital role of a safe, supportive community in walking out healing and lasting change.
