    WHY TWO MINUTES?

    The Two-Minute Rule states “When you start a new habit, it should take less than two minutes to do.”   The idea behind the rule is to make a habit easy to start.
    One of the goals for 2-Minute Theology is to help believers develop a theological habit.
    Another goal is to provide believers with a resource they can use to 'test the spirits' to see if they are from God.
