Where to Look for Love

A. Craig Troxel expounds on what Scripture says about the heart, and teaches how to re-orient the heart towards Christ. Troxel explains that the word “heart” in Scripture actually refers to three different parts of our inner selves: the mind, the desires, and the will. The mind’s heart is what you know, the desire’s heart is what you want, and the will’s heart is what you choose.

The goal of the Christian life is not duty, but joy, and in order to get there, we need the Holy Spirit to teach us how to love what God loves. To love God whole-heartedly, we must look to Christ who has perfectly loved the Father.
