image Bill and his ministry have relaunched his personal website, BillGothard.com.  It features many of the over 20 books he has written over the past four years.  He continues traveling from time to time to speak.  At 82 he shows no signs of slowing down.

A new focus in a number of his books is the “gut brain”, the principle that we do more thinking and planning with our “gut” than we do with the grey matter between our ears. Scripture uses the term “reins” in the King James Version to refer to this part of our “Inner Man”, the Hebrew word for “kidneys”.  The importance of these “reins” is given in Psalm 16 where it becomes the means of God’s direction and instruction to us:

Psalms 16:7

“I will bless the Lord, who hath given me counsel:
my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.”

Jesus also refers to the “reins” or kidneys – in this case the Greek word – as distinct from our “heart”:

Revelation 2:23

“I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.”
