Your interpretation is correct.
There is no new argument for the existence of a god.
Plantinga, Craig, et al (with their addition of modal logic) are doing nothing more than polishing a turd.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
