INTRODUCTION: About ‘The Wall’ analysis.
‘The Wall’ analysis is a questionairre that I have developed based on Songs 8:10 where the Bride says, ‘I am a wall !’. As we saw, as we progress in the stages of love seen in the Song of Solomon, then we are built up into a strong wall. |
We must have strong foundations in one stage before the next stage can be built (or else the wall will collapse!)
The following 40 questions are a mixture of questions - each one particularly relevant to a certain stage of love. As you go through the questions answer with honesty. It is best not to dwell too long on each question (usually your first feeling of what the answer is will be the best!).
After you have answered all the questions you will be shown how to add up the totals for each stage. You should end up with a total for each stage of love (five in all) which will show you how big your ‘building block’ is for that stage. Then you should be able to draw a picture of your ‘ WALL’ - seeing immediately your strengths and weaknesses. This process will be described in more detail when we get there!
