Mark 12:30 (NIV) Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.
- Just for fun: what is one thing you just love?
- What exactly does it mean to love? Is it an emotion? Something you do? An act of the will? Something you decide?
- Love God with all your heart… is that an emotion?
- Love God with all your soul… is that talking about the same thing or something different?
- What exactly does it mean to love God with your mind?
- And your strength… what exactly does it mean to love God with all your strength?
- How have you come to love God as much as you do?
- How do we come to love God more than we do?
- How can we help each other love God more than we do?
- What benefits come to those who come to love God with all their heart, soul, mind and strength?
- What hinders us from loving God more than we do?
- What is one step we could take to move us toward deeper love for God?
