Contributed by Eyriche Cortez on Nov 23, 2009

If we really value Jesus Christ, we will value what He values.

"dear God, Please Give Me..."

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Jul 31, 2023

If God offered to give you whatever you wanted, what would you ask for? Solomon teaches us how to ask for true riches.

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Aug 28, 2023

Will The Real Proverbs 31 Woman Please Stand Up Series

Contributed by Mark Gomez on Jul 11, 2012

Getting away from the creation of an impossible woman, in this study we discover that the woman in Proverbs 31 is real and she is everywhere. She is not beyond reach for other women and she is not meant to be a threatening creature.

The Proverbs 31 woman can be a threatening and foreboding creature. Perhaps that is why so many women have attacked and denied her reality (rejection). Perhaps that is why so many men have held her up as some standard by which all women should be measured (oppression). But the reality is that she ...read more
