How Do We Love The God Who Is?
1. From the message, How Do We Love the God Who Is?, what insight did you find to be most helpful, eye-opening or troubling? Why?
2. In the parallel account of the Great Command, Mark 12:29-30 reads, “’The most important one,’ answered Jesus, ‘is this: Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’” Where does this begin?
3. Bible teacher James MacDonald suggests five ways we can love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength.
• Psalm 51:3—Sorrow over our sin
• Psalm 33:8—Fear of God
• Psalm 42:1—Longing for more of God
• Psalm 95:2—Thankfulness of what God has accomplished on your behalf through Jesus
• Psalm 16:11—Indescribable joy
Which of these aspects of love for God do you most need to cultivate in your life?
4. How can you put this into practice this week?
