World-class philosopher J.P. Moreland and Global Scholars CEO Stan Wallace discuss how Christians can better follow the often-neglected aspect of Jesus' greatest commandment--loving God with all our minds (Luke 10:27). We also discuss how doing so results in a deepening relationship with Christ and greater influence for Christ.
