  • The Rights of the Poor

    The Rights of the Poor
    2024/11/10

    We're in the midst of a fussy cultural conversation about social justice and human rights, but what does Scripture say about these things? A lot! Imploring us to care for the vulnerable because that's what God did for us, Scripture also specifies that the most important political question for Christians is not "How do we vote?" but "Are we practicing the politics of Jesus as a church?"

    Any Fool Will Quarrel

    Is it OK to be angry? Yes! But Scripture also tells us to be very careful with our anger, and quick to let go of it instead of pouring gas on it in the name of an allegedly greater good. Because while we like to tell ourselves we're good at being angry for a good cause, Scripture disagrees.

  • Becoming the "Right" Person

    Becoming the "Right" Person
    2024/10/27

    If we're single, we tend to spend a lot of our time looking for the "right" person to spend our lives with. If we're married and having trouble, we tend to spend a lot of time trying to fix the "right" person (our spouse). However, the writers of Proverbs seem far more concerned with us becoming the "right" person that God wants us to be. What does it look like to be the right kind of woman or the right kind of man in God's eyes?

  • Wisdom With Our Words

    Wisdom With Our Words
    2024/10/20
    Proverbs has a lot to say about how we use our words. Wise people are careful with their words and use them to speak life. Various New Testament writers say the same thing. For example Col. 4:6 says that "our speech should always be gracious and seasoned with salt." So, what does it mean that our speech should be "seasoned...?" What are some practical ways we can season our speech in order to be people who speak life with our words?

  • Iron Sharpens Iron

    Iron Sharpens Iron
    2024/10/13
    Scripture makes it clear that good and wise company is a necessary component to cultivating wisdom in our lives. But how do I know if the company I keep is wise or foolish? Do they fear God? Do they speak the truth in love? Are they able to hear and receive Godly truth in their own life? Do they help carry the burdens of others? Proverbs gives us incredible insight into the characteristics of good and wise company, the kind of company we need in our lives if we want to grow in wisdom. But also the kind of company we should strive to be for others.

  • The Righteous Give

    The Righteous Give
    2024/10/06
    How do we best steward our resources? By gaining them righteously, using them wisely, and giving them generously. Threading the needle between prosperity and poverty gospel readings of Scripture, Proverbs offers a blunt but generous set of teachings on the intersection of wealth and possessions in God's economy.

  • An Ode to Prudence

    An Ode to Prudence
    2024/09/29
    We should spend more time understanding what will not change than trying to anticipate what will change. This is a fundamental lesson of Proverbs, and in Proverbs 8 we learn it is not prudent people who are naive and sheltered, but foolish people. Because prudence makes holy play possible.
