A Weekly podcast of the messages and special events at The Gateway Church in Des Moines, IA.
When asked about the most important command, Jesus quotes the Shema—the call to love the Lord your God, with all your heart, soul, and body. (He even adds one to the list—the mind.) In this series, we'll explore what loving God with your whole self looks like, and how these are also connected with the second command Jesus offers: “to love our neighbor as ourselves.”

When asked about the greatest commandment, Jesus pointed to the Shema: Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and strength. Then He added one more—your mind. But He didn't stop there. The second command? Love your neighbor as yourself. Over the next few months, we'll unpack what it means to love God with our whole selves—heart, soul, mind, and body—and how this transforms the way we love those around us. Join us on Sundays at 10am in the historic Fleming Building in downtown Des Moines.
Key Scripture: Luke 2:1-6 Advent is a time for us to look with anticipation toward what is to come.
