Love Your God with All Your Mind:
The Role of Reason in the Life of the
Soul by Dallas Willard
Thinking About Thinking In A Christian Way
PREPARE YOUR MIND FOR ACTION The mind plays an important role
in Christianity. Unfortunately, many of us leave our minds behind when it
comes to our faith. In Love Your God with All Your Mind, J.P. Moreland
presents a logical case for the role of the mind in spiritual transformation.
He challenges us to develop a Christian mind and to use our intellect to
further Gods kingdom through evangelism, apologetics, worship, and
vocation. This exploration into the mind of evangelical Christianity is one
of the most courageous books of our time. In language that is thoroughly
erudite but compassionate, theological but practical, and scriptural but
entirely relevant to today, the author presents the deeper significance of
Pauls plea to the Christians at Phillipi: Let this mind be in you, which was
also in Christ Jesus. -D. James Kennedy, Ph.D., senior minister, coral
Ridge Presbyterian Church This is more than just another Christian
book. It is the wake-up call that the church needs today. God gave us

minds for a reason. It is crucial that we become like Christ in the way we
think. If we heed J.P.s words, we can counter the culture in which we live,
work, think, and minister. -Josh McDowell, Josh McDowell Ministries J.P.
Moreland exemplifies the Christian mind as it ought to be-tough and
analytic, but also generous and caring. Christians who want to develop
their minds in the service of Christ couldnt find a better teacher, or a better
book for the task. -Phillip E. Johnson, author of Darwin on Trial
Personal Review: Love Your God with All Your Mind: The Role
of Reason in the Life of the Soul by Dallas Willard
This is a good book. A bit "hard core" for a non philosophy major like
myself, but a good book all in all. The author brings up good points about
the traditional christian view on philosophy and academics and uses many
historical quotes from various sources (both christian and secular). He
puts forth a very strong argument about how having an active mind and
being a diligent student of various academic disciplines, in addition to
christian studies, is not only beneficial to the believer, but is what God
intended. The author also emphasizes how Christians have become
viewed by the secular culture and how knowing why you believe what you
believe can be vital in winning the souls of the lost.
This was a good read, if a little slow. Just be prepared to "chew" on this
one for a while.
