Bible Reading
S.O.A.P MethodSOAP?
The acronym “S.O.A.P.” comes from the picture we see in Ephesians 5:25b-26 (NLT) “…Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for (the church) to make (the church) holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word.”
At Life Link Church, our desire is that every believer would not just attend church, but also take the personal responsibility of developing the habit of daily prayer and Bible study.
We believe that doing daily devotions re-patterns the way we think, transforms our heart, and helps us become more like Jesus!
“Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think…” (Romans 12:2a NLT)
