SOAP ME ! is a SMIDGE Study Method for an Inspirational, Deep, Gratifying, Enlightening connection with the Living Word of God, in this free educational forum of the Online Bible Study offered at Obsidian.
Just like the acronym says, we believe the Word of God can wash you, and cleanse you deeply.
The Online Bible Study course is conceptualized in 7 steps, just like there are 7 days of the week, suggesting you dedicate 10 to 20 minutes a day, for a week to immerse yourself into a short passage from the Bible.
this is the step for day 2, in other words the letter O in sOapme!
Observe!
Further this week’s Better Daily Bible Quote for studying
