This week’s lesson introduces the topic for our study—wisdom—by asking some basic questions about the nature of wisdom in the book of Proverbs: What is wisdom? Where does wisdom come from? And why communicate wisdom through proverbial sayings?

God has put in each of us a heart for service, yet we often grasp after status and standing, position and power. What good news we find in Jesus, who nevertheless came to serve us, and also to make us servants with him. For like Jesus, we too can be secure in the love of God our Father and so empty our lives in blessing for others.

"Are you living your authentic life?" The self-centered search for identity and purpose leaves us exhausted, but God offers his own imprint when we render our lives to him. Fr. Paul invites a fresh look at the incarnation of Christ.

We desperately need healing, and so God calls us to pray. Fr. Paul examines the good news in healing: a sign of the greater and global work of grace.

Fr. Paul examines the first of four ancient commitments of the church. We are called to guard the Apostles' teaching, which was given by God to give life to the world.

What does it mean to desire God? Fr. Jonathan examines the nature of longing and how, even when we achieve our dreams, we desire more. In the Biblical image of the wilderness, we see how weariness can bring us to our greatest longing, God, who alone can offer sanctuary.

Fr. Paul examines the sin of contempt and its prevalence in our nation, including the church. But we have hope, for Jesus meets us on the day of reckoning, using the consequences of sin to turn us back to God. Repent and return.

"Great stories deserve great beginnings." Fr. Jonathan shows the genius in the tedium of Matthew's Gospel genealogy: the epic drama of Israel's failure reflects our own tragic shortcomings and reveals how our Messiah has adopted our mess.

"As Christians, too often, we forget our name—and the world suffers for it." Fr. Paul examines how the God-given name of Jesus declares whose He is, what He is, and why He is; and because His name has been placed on us, we inherit His blessed life.
