Loving God with All Your Mind | Mark 12:28-31 | Mike Gilbart-Smith

What does it mean to love the Lord your God with all your mind in a culture that separates love from thought? In this Oak Hill College Chapel Talk, Associate Teacher and church leader Mike Gilbart-Smith explores Jesus’ command in Mark 12:28–31. Addressing modern misconceptions of love, the rise of Artificial Intelligence, and the nature of Christian worship, Mike unpacks four essential ways we are called to love God with our intellect: 1. **A Posture of Worshiping the Lord** — Approaching theology with awe, moving from study to praise. 2. **A Pursuit of His Word** — Receiving God as He has revealed Himself, rather than creating Him in our image. 3. **A Practice of Remembering** — Learning truth not merely to pass exams, but to live faithfully. 4. **A Patience in Maturing in Love** — Loving God with the mind you have today while looking forward to eternal perfection. 📖 **Scripture Reference:** Mark 12:28–31; Deuteronomy 6:4–5 🎙 **Speaker:** Mike Gilbart-Smith (Associate Teacher, Oak Hill College) 📍 **Venue:** Oak Hill College Chapel, London 🌐 **Learn more about Oak Hill College:** https://www.oakhill.ac.uk 📌 **Subscribe** for more chapel talks, lectures, and biblical theology resources. - 00:00 - Introduction: Does Love Exclude the Mind? - 00:02:03 - The Greatest Commandment & Hearing Truth (Mark 12 / Deut 6) - 00:03:33 - 1.
