     | 4,009 views

    God puts us in this world with a small subset of the human race to begin relating to. Our parents are the first representatives of fallen humanity that we meet and our first model for authority figures that we’ll meet later in life.

    Introduction Jesus said that the commandments are summed up in the dual command, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength and your neighbour as yourself." Well today we come to the fifth commandment. This seems to be about loving your neighbour, but it’s one of the ...read more

    Proverbs 2

    “Treasure Hunting” Proverbs 2 Intro: The Bible is an amazing book. We so often treat it as a textbook, merely teaching academic truth--when what it really is is a children’s "pop-up" book, showing us glimpses into the very heart and soul of those we find mentioned there. The Psalms were not ...read more

    We make choices everyday and in order to make the best decisions we need to seek God’s wisdom. This was delivered on graduation Sunday.

    Illustration The faculty of a college were in their annual meeting when, suddenly, an angel appeared. Turning to the Dean, the angel said, "I will grant you one of three choices -- infinite wisdom, infinite wealth or infinite health." The Dean thought for a minute, then replied "Wisdom." "So be ...read more

    This is a short sermon on raising children, on parenting

    We are beginning a sermon series on Proverbs. I was going to call it “The High Way of Wisdom” because the book of proverbs uses that image: there is a wise path and a foolish path to follow in life. Proverbs 16:17 “The highway of the upright avoids evil; he who guards his way guards his ...read more

    The wisdom of God contains promises for living life to its fullest if we will but listen and follow in obedience.

    The Promises of Wisdom Proverbs 2:1-22 We live in a day when popular opinion says that “promises are made to be broken.” We continue to make promises, but they are broken every day. The reason that this has come about is because we are fallible human beings, sin has corrupted us at our core, and ...read more

    TRUE WISDOM Proverbs 2:1-15 (Devotional Series 6) It is difficult to find a precise definition for the word "wisdom" which appears so often in this book. Sometimes it is almost personnified, and some have equated it with the Holy Spirit. It is probably more exact to say that it is meant to ...read more

    In chapter 2, a father encourages his son to search diligently for this rare jewel because wisdom is not usually discovered by the casual observer. Wisdom is discovered and enjoyed only by those who are diligent, devoted, and determined to seek it.
