  • Amazing

    This plan is amazing. It has opened my eyes to things I’d never seen before. Dr. Arango has organized this in a way that is easy to understand, encourages note taking, and inspires you to dive deeper into the word. His context clues and nerdy nuggets are helpful and interesting. I constantly share this plan with people I know and strangers I nay spark conversations with who are interested in studying the Bible. Well done and Thank You Bible Dept.
