EPISODE 124: LOVING GOD (Be Loved and Live Series)
BE IN THE WORD (this week’s verses):
Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ (Matthew 22:37)
BE DOERS, NOT JUST HEARERS (practical application):
These three can represent your emotional, volitional, and rational responses to God:
- Emotional (heart, kardia). Connecting with God on an emotional level can take form in things like worship, prayer, and spending time with other believers.
- Volitional (breath, psyche). This is your will. This is where you surrender. This is where the changes start to take place. This is where your choices start reflecting the One whom you’re seeking to serve.
- Rational (mind, dianoia). Understanding, logic, knowing God. Staying in the word, going deeper in Bible Studies
