Take a look inside the studio during these 12 hours of heart to heart conversations on Maasbach Radio!
February 14th will be a day full of surprises! Join Christy Grace on air for uplifting music, fun giveaways but most of all… heart to heart conversations that will draw you deeper into the presence of God.
Let’s have a heart to heart!
Love, connection, faith, and surprises, that is exactly what listeners can expect during Maasbach Radio’s special Heart to Heart event. This annual broadcast has become a meaningful moment for listeners to come together, share stories, grow spiritually, and experience encouragement through Christian music, conversations, and testimonies.
This year, Maasbach Radio is adding an extra sweet surprise to the celebration. During the event, listeners will have the opportunity to win a beautiful handmade cake, generously gifted by one of The Hague’s most beloved bakeries — Cake du Fortin.
The Heart to Heart event, taking place around Valentine’s Day, invites listeners from all over the world to tune in and be part of an uplifting broadcast filled with inspiring conversations and moments of faith. The event reflects the heart of Maasbach Radio, creating a place where people can grow in faith, share life experiences, and feel connected, even across borders.
The special giveaway cake comes from Cake du Fortin, a family bakery with a rich history and a passion for craftsmanship. Owner Yvonne Fortin-Godoy has been baking and decorating cakes since 1975, learning the art from her mother, Martha Sanchez, and her aunt, Walmira Godoy. Over the years, Yvonne has further perfected her skills through courses in Aruba and Venezuela, transforming what started as a hobby into a lifelong profession.
Cake du Fortin grew into a true family business, with her husband Ricardo Fortin, daughter Mauri Fortin, and son Curt Fortin all contributing to the bakery’s success. The bakery has become known for its dedication to refining both cake recipes and decorating techniques, using high-quality ingredients to create memorable and delicious creations.
Today, Cake du Fortin specializes in wedding cakes, children’s cakes, sugar decorations, and savory treats, all crafted with exceptional attention to detail.
Located in the heart of The Hague on the lively Prinsestraat, the bakery is loved by customers for its handmade cakes, welcoming atmosphere, and outstanding quality.
Cake du Fortin is extra special to Maasbach Radio because the station is always playing inside the bakery. Customers often enjoy delicious cake while listening to uplifting Christian music and messages, creating a beautiful connection between the bakery and the radio station’s mission to spread hope and encouragement.
By partnering with Cake du Fortin for this giveaway, Maasbach Radio not only wants to bless a listener with a beautiful cake, but also highlight a local family business that shares warmth, passion, and dedication to excellence.
During the Heart to Heart broadcast, listeners will have the chance to participate in the giveaway and win this exclusive cake. Details on how to enter will be shared live during the event, so listeners are encouraged to tune in and stay connected throughout the day for their chance to win.
The partnership between Maasbach Radio and Cake du Fortin perfectly reflects the spirit of Heart to Heart, bringing people together, celebrating love, and sharing moments that inspire and uplift.
Whether through music, meaningful conversations, or a delicious handcrafted cake, this special event promises to remind listeners that even small gestures can create lasting joy.
Listeners can tune in live via Maasbach Radio’s website and join a day filled with surprises, encouragement, and heartfelt connection.

Have you ever heard of affirmations? Affirmations are short, powerful sentences that declare something as true — often about yourself, your purpose, or your future — to help reinforce a positive mindset. But did you know that this is actually a principle from the word of God? Life and death is in the power of the tongue! (Proverbs 18:21)
Affirmations are declarations of faith — spoken truths aligned with God’s Word — that remind you who you are in Christ and what He has promised.
So speak these truths over yourself, out loud! They are all based on the word of God and are true for the children of God!

Ben Fuller is back on Maasbach Radio and we can’t believe he forgot to bring this one thing… his mug!
We’re used to seeing Ben carry around his mug everywhere he goes, but when he arrived at the Maasbach Radio studio on location we noticed he didn’t have his mug with him. Luckily, we had a ‘Miracle Day Mug’ to give to him and everything was back to normal.
You’ll be hearing a special message and prayer from Ben Fuller this week on Maasbach Radio. Make sure you’re subscribed to Maasbach Radio’s Youtube channel so you won’t miss a thing. May you be encouraged as you’re tuning in to Maasbach Radio today.
Check out this bilingual acoustic version of the soothing song ‘Still waters (Psalm 23)’ by Leanna Crawford, joined by Christy Grace.
CHORUS – ENGLISH & DUTCH
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
Hij leidt mij naar stil water en angst ken ik niet
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Weet ik dat U bij mij bent, mijn Vader, mijn vriend
Your goodness and mercy will follow me all of my days
Aan Uw water zo stil en zo kalm
BRIDGE – ENGLISH & DUTCH
Still waters run through any valley I could find
Ik leg angsten neer aan de hemelse rivier
Your word has been true in every season of my life
I believe, yes, I believe
CHORUS – DUTCH & ENGLISH
De Heer is mijn Herder, mij ontbreekt niets
He leads me by still waters ’til my fears are gone
Als ik ga door valleien vol schaduw van dood
Oh, I know You are with me, my Father, my friend
Uw goedheid, genade die volgen mij, mijn leven lang
I know by Your still waters I’m safe

VERSE – ENGLISH
When I’m feeling my feet are tired
From running so hard for miles
You are the air I really need
VERSE – DUTCH
Als het leven mij heen en weer slaat
En ik wankel in mijn positie
Zie ik uw hand in elk moment
PRE-CHORUS – ENGLISH
And every time
I’m stuck in indecision
Losing my vision
You close the distance
CHORUS – DUTCH
Ik hoef het niet te zien om te geloven
Mijn hele leven heb ik U van node
En ik, voel u in het vuur en de regen
CHORUS – ENGLISH
So help me learn to listen when You’re speaking
‘Cause love is not a secret that You’re keeping
And I I’ve felt You when walls are caving in
Yeah You’re with me in the whisper and the wind
BRIDGE – ENGLISH
I don’t wanna waste any time
Just looking for You in the…
BRIDGE – DUTCH
…lucht, U bent dichterbij dan gevoel
en U ademt door mij heen
CHORUS – DUTCH
Ik hoef het niet te zien om te geloven
Mijn hele leven heb ik U van node
En ik, voel u in het vuur en de regen
CHORUS – ENGLISH
So help me learn to listen when You’re speaking
‘Cause love is not a secret that You’re keeping
And I I’ve felt You when walls are caving in
Yeah You’re with me in the whisper and the wind
