Week 14: God’s Greatest Commandment
Shelton and Andrew discuss one of the most famous passages in the Bible — Deuteronomy 6.4-5, the command to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength.
A few things covered in this episode:
- Why Moses gave the law a second time
- Why Jesus called this “the greatest commandment”
- What it means to love God with all our heart
The listener question this week:
- “Why did God insist that the Israelites not let any living thing survive when they entered the promised land? How do we reconcile this with God’s love?” (Deuteronomy 20.16-17)
