The Biblical principle found in Matthew 22:37 (NKJV) serves as the purpose and motivating foundation for Dr. Moore in life and ministry: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” This Biblical command birthed Dr. Moore’s purpose for ministry. That purpose is to give God all the glory and unite and reunite souls with Christ.
