Toward Wisdom & Into the Fear of God

Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance, to understand a proverb and a saying, the words of the wise and their riddles.(Proverbs 1:5-6, ESV) Common sense seems to be not so common anymore. It seems like every time I see the news, another story is popping up that I just shake my head in response. I thought we were supposed to be getting smarter. This week we start our summer series Proverbs: Uncommon Sense. In it, we will unfold the source, nature, and content of real knowledge as we examine the book and many of the subjects it covers. If you want to begin to get a handle on it, an easy way to start is to read one chapter each day corresponding with the date. (i.e. chapter 1 on June 1). Hopefully we will all become wiser as we listen and learn from the wise.
