How do we love God with all of our soul? Last week as part of our Wholly Devoted series we looked at what it looks like to give our heart to God. This week we are going to take a look at loving God with our soul. Being wholly devoted to God means we freely…
Becoming Wholly Devoted I was reading this morning in 1 Kings and came across a verse that stuck a cord with me, it deals with being wholly devoted to Christ. Here is the verse, 1 Kings 8:61, “Let your heart therefore be wholly devoted to the Lord our God, to walk in His statutes and…
