Preserving Tradition

Proverbs 4 Overview: Biblical wisdom works with “tradition,” the very ones that have us seeking recipes our grandmother’s used to make and saying things to our kids that our parents said to us.  Wisdom is about preserving tradition… biblical wisdom appeals to the creation order and the experience of past generations to provide insights for new lives situations. To face that which is new, we have the abiding patterns of reality lived in the past. The new situation becomes something that fits a pattern of human life, equipping us to take on the new with confidence from the past.
