Excerpt of John Piper's response to the following question:
Is it more important to have a mind for God or a heart for God?
A balance is necessary for sure, but both are crucial.
I could probably make a case for each that would make it sound more important than the other, which sounds contradictory. This is because, in a sense, truth is the foundation of all right affections, while at the same time right affections (the heart in relation to God) is the goal of truth.
