Love with All Thy Mind ministries is an online resource with the simple goal of challenging Christians to better understand the God they serve and provide some tools to assist in that endeavor. If I may be so bold as to take up the mantle of a Bible Teacher, then I do so with the understanding that I am responsible "for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ" (Eph. 4:12-13 NASB). What this means, in part, is that we are incapable of experiencing the fullness of Christ without the knowledge of the Son of God. Knowledge, not simply awareness, of the Son of God is what believers are to strive for. In this process of learning about and living for the Son of God, our faith goes from being weak and blind to strong and reasonable. The books and blogs on this website will often give examples of the reasonable faith that we can have in God through a contextual understanding of the Bible and non-bias observation of the created world.

 

There is nothing on this website that claims to be divinely inspired. I will not even claim that the Holy Spirit led me to include this information. There should be no trust in what is read on this site that is not earned. By all means, disagree with anything I write, as long as you are drawn closer to the Bible to discover, not what verses support your beliefs, but what is true outside of preconceptions. In short, this website encourages true followers of Jesus Christ to love God, not only with their hearts, but with their minds fully engaged.

 

The name Love with All Thy Mind ministries comes directly from the Bible.

​

"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God... with all thy mind."

Matthew 22:37; Mark 12:30; Luke 10:27 (KJV)
