Study the Bible · Everything the Bible says about one thing

Topical Recon

Fear. Anger. Money. Marriage. Lust. Forgiveness. When one subject is beating you, find out God’s whole mind on it, not one verse. Gather every passage you can, read them in context, and write down what they say together. This is how you build a fortress around a weak spot.
