Stephen Venable has become my favorite teacher at IHOP-KC. His message is consistent: intimacy with Jesus must be the focal point of true Christianity; we grow in intimacy with Jesus by increasing our relational knowledge of Him; and the way we increase that knowledge is by meditating on the stories of His life in the inspired record. It is simple, but it is profoundly powerful and profoundly neglected in the American Church today.
In this message, Stephen looks at the First Commandment and provides a practical grid for how we engage our affections in loving Jesus wholeheartedly.
