I have organized our in-depth study material around the two great commandments: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your , and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength,” and “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Mark 12:30-31). This provides a balance between your head and your heart, between doing and being. Watch for this area to grow.
