Proverbs – April 21, 2024
The book of Proverbs is poetry created for the contemplation of God’s wisdom – rhythms of right and wrong that guide us to a flourishing life. When we humbly read and reflect on the character and nature of God in his word, he is faithful to plant the seeds of wisdom in our hearts. One of the first fruits of God’s faithfulness we see in our lives is the words we use. Jesus connected these dots for us when he promised that “whatever comes out of your mouth was born in your heart” (Matthew 15:18). So, it makes sense that the second most visited topic in Proverbs (other than wisdom itself) is how we chose to speak.
Don’t miss this Sunday as we look to God’s word for the wisest way to handle the incredibly power of our words. We will also have small group study guides available in the lobby.
