Our church, Orchard Hill, has decided to do a church study on the book called 40 Days Living the Jesus Creed. I looked at it yesterday, and it is a book with 2 pages per day to read, about how to live according to the Creed Jesus said

Mark 12:29-31 (New International Version)

29"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.^[a] 30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'^[b] 31The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'^[c]There is no commandment greater than these."

Our challenge is to memorized this verse, and live by it!

[this is good]

That certainly covers all the bases, doesn't it? I am thinking about how this will apply to the goals in your other post and to the resolutions we all will make or break this year. Just for fun I am going to copy and paste the verse on your resolution post. :)

I will keep you posted on each day next week on what I've learned in my book. I fully understand your concerns on this verse, but we'll see how the church explains it to us. Thanks
