EXPAND
Build skills that help you expand your wisdom, knowledge of God, and love for God
Wholehearted Devotion to God requires continually expanding our wisdom, knowledge about God, and love for God.
Any relationship worth having is a relationship worth investing in. Our relationship with God is no exception. And any relationship that has truly been invested in will grow and expand. When we build skills that invest in our relationship with God, our love for Him will expand, our knowledge of Him will expand, and we will become wiser. We work through each skill by either working through the skill's documents or interacting with the skill's videos.
