We could all use a little instruction and wisdom, right? I don't know about you, but I need a lot!

We'd love to be better versions of ourselves, for the glory of God. The book of Proverbs is like a roadmap to that better version of you. We've been parked there a lot lately, and that's a good thing.

The Proverbs 31 Woman is certainly inspiring to us all, but the whole book of Proverbs is full of  instruction and wisdom. And it's not just for us. This instruction and wisdom is relevant for every member of our family—even the little ones! But today, let's just talk about us.

I want to introduce you to a fabulous, new Bible study on Proverbs 31, and you can do this in just 5 minutes a day! I know you're busy. You have a lot on your plate, as I do. We can do this! 5 minutes. We've got this. Let's dive in!

Those are two words I’m hearing a lot lately. They’re fitting for these days we’ve been walking through since a tiny virus grew to mammoth proportions and crushed normalcy under its weight. It feels as if everything in our world has changed over the last several months. And as a result of all the changes, all the people are feeling all the feelings. And they all want us to know. Life can be more than a little overwhelming right now. Social Media has become a battle zone as voices rise to carry over one another. 

In a line of expressionless, masked faces spaced six feet apart, people of all ages, colors, backgrounds, and ethnicities wait. They wait to walk into stores where they will cringe at touching what other fingers have touched and leave quickly to sanitize their hands and stay home where it is safe from:
 

• Germs. 
• Violence and riots. 
• Racial tension. ​ 

Today, we're at the halfway point in our Summer 2020 Book Club-Style Bible Study--She Loves Truth.

Practical wisdom for living is the central theme of the book of Proverbs. In Proverbs 1:7 and 9:10, we are told that the beginning and essence of wisdom is the fear of the Lord.

This summer, we are looking for truth in a 10-week study of the book of Proverbs. Join us each Tuesday morning at 9:00, June 2 - August 4, and let’s seek truth together and record what we find because She Loves Truth!

​So far, we've looked at Proverbs 1-3: Trust in the Lord​, Proverbs 4-6: Practical Truths For Living, Proverbs 7-9: The Blessings of Wisdom, and Proverbs 10-12: Truths to Help You Thrive. This week we'll be studying the Wisdom and Truth of Proverbs 13-15.

Welcome to week three of our Summer 2020 Book Club-Style Bible Study--She Loves Truth.

Making any decision requires a thought process. Proverbs 14:15 cautions us not to believe everything we hear. “The simple believes everything, but the prudent gives thought to his steps.” We can’t believe everything we hear or read. Instead, we should take our time and work through decisions with prayer. We don’t have to make decisions based on other people’s opinions. After all, what God has to say on the subject matters the most. We must be prudent and seek out the truth.

Are you facing a problem in life that you just can’t fix, no matter what you do? Perhaps you’ve heard the phrase “Let go and let God.” But it’s easier said than done. Is it possible that giving up on what you can’t change is God’s path to peace for your life? In Surrendered, Barb Roose’s new six-week Bible study of Jesus in the wilderness, she explores Jesus’ time of testing and contrasts it with the Israelites’ failures in the wilderness.
 
As readers learn from Jesus’ example, they’ll discover six principles that will equip them to let God lead them to victory despite their circumstances as they deal with the problems and pain they are facing.

Whether you’re a dramatic Disney villain ranting about insufferable princesses or a stressed-out mom picking up after your cyclone of children passing through the house, you’ve probably been caught talking to yourself at least once in your life. The truth is, we all find the idea of talking to ourselves rather funny. We have pictures in our minds of those people that usually take the form of absent-minded scientists or psychotic mental patients. Either way, they’re slightly insane.
