Proverbs, part 1: Why it is needed in a post-Christian, post-Biblical world (our world today)

by

Proverbs, 1st lesson

Why do you act the way you do? Talk the way you do?

Are these conscious decisions or simply a reflection of whatever everyone else in your world says and does?

We don’t often give everyday actions or words much thought, but in our podcast today we’re going to look at the book of Proverbs and WHY we need it in a post-Christian, post-Biblical world.

This is an important podcast for you to listen to because though we don’t often think about the default settings in behavior and beliefs in our world today, they are important because they guide our behavior unless we make conscious decisions to act differently.

Because our society today is post-Christian and post-Biblical we must work much harder to live a Biblical life.

This podcast will walk you through the meaning of these ideas, how we got where we are, and the remedy of a Biblical view of life as found in Proverbs if we want to live a life pleasing to God and peaceful and productive to us.

We’ll look at his life, but more than that, we’ll end with a challenge that You can make a more eternally significant impact with your life than he did with all the wisdom, wealth, power and riches he had.
