Face your fears and stop allowing the mind to hold you captive.

Every time you go to the zoo, you prolong the captivity of the animals there! If no one goes to the zoos, there will be no zoos! Destroying the evil is very simple and it is in your hand!

We are responsible for our captivity to sin. In our foolishness, we forget God. However, God intervenes!
