In this uncompromising 6-part series on Jesus’ letter to the church in Ephesus, Dr. Michael Youssef calls believers back to their first love. Rooted in the inerrant Word of God, this series reveals what it truly means to love the Lord Jesus Christ with all your mind, heart, soul, and memory. With clarity and urgency, Dr. Youssef exposes the dangers of spiritual drift, cultural compromise, and forgetfulness of God’s grace. Each message calls for repentance, renewed intimacy with Christ, and wholehearted devotion to the crucified and risen Son of God. As you remember His saving work and grow in daily obedience, you will deepen your love for Jesus and stand firm in Gospel Truth.

In this message, Dr. Michael Youssef calls believers back to the Shema: to love the Lord our God with all our mind. Jesus, the divine Son who fulfilled the Law, affirmed this command as the greatest of all. Loving Christ with the mind means more than words or rituals; it demands ironclad commitment to the inerrant Word of God. We must repent of selective obedience and reject cultural compromise. True love begins with a determined will that places Jesus at the center of every priority. As we fix our minds on Him, leaving past failures behind, we intercede for steadfast hearts and press on to know Him more deeply each day.
