Marketplace Proverbs & Coffee With Ernie

Sometimes, the most important call you make is the one you weren’t planning.Proverbs 27 reminds us to “know the condition of your flock,” and in this episode, I share how acting on the Holy Spirit’s promptings—whether through a call, a handwritten note, or a prayer—can transform relationships from transactional to truly celebrated.“Know well the condition of your flock, and pay attention to your herds, for wealth is not forever; not even a crown lasts for all time. When hay is removed and new growth appears, and the grain from the hills is gathered in, lambs will provide your clothing, and goats, the price of a field; there will be enough goat’s milk for your food, food for your household and nourishment for your female servants.” — Proverbs 27:23–27 CSBThis passage isn’t just about farming, it’s about stewardship. Just like flocks and herds need daily care, relationships require consistent attention. Neglect weakens them. Nurturing strengthens them. This is a public episode.
