The Apostle Paul exhorts followers of Jesus in Ephesians 4:23 to be “renewed in the spirit of your mind” so that we can walk in truth. We must engage the renewal process by regular study of God’s word. God’s word is the meat of our study. However, God has also gifted many brothers and sisters with insight into the word of God in specific areas. The following list is a supplement to your regular time in THE Word of God. May it serve as a help to you in increasing your maturity in faith and knowledge in our Lord Jesus Christ.
