Proverbs, a reliable GPS for a disciple of Jesus

2022-12-21 by bible805

Proverbs, a reliable GPS for a disciple of JesusWe need a GPS, a global positioning system to help us live a life that pleases God.

A GPS in our car or phone can give us directions because it is linked to a system of satellites orbiting the earth that can pinpoint where we are within 1 centimeter of accuracy. We might be lost or not know how to get from place to place where we are on earth.

But a GPS system, far above us, can see the big picture and correctly guide us.

The book of Proverbs gives us the view of what our behavior from God’s viewpoint should be like that we need when we get lost in the weeds of daily decisions.

In this lesson, we’ll look at the book overall and then we’ll look at some specific situations in life that our world tells us to respond in one way, but the book of Proverbs gives us a different way to respond.

Below is the podcast and video of the lesson and below them the notes/transcript

Why Psalms and Proverbs are a DAILY part of our Chronological Order Bible Reading

2022-12-20 by bible805

Why Psalms and Proverbs are part of our daily Bible ReadingOn the Bible805 Bible Reading Schedule we are going through the Bible in Chronological order.

You’ll notice that along with the longer passage each day is a Psalm or a chapter in Proverbs.

In this short lesson, I’d like to take a few minutes to explain why we’re doing this. I’ll first explain how we are organizing the books of history and the prophets, and then why these books are different than the books that make up the chronological reading of the Bible, why it’s OK to put them where they are, and more than that, how reading them in this way will help you grow in your Christian life and encourage you on your journey.

This lesson is an overview of two longer lessons that go into a more detailed introduction of the books of Psalms and Proverbs, the links to them follow. Be sure to check them out.

•       Psalms: How to walk with Jesus in every part of life

•       Proverbs, a reliable GPS for a disciple of Jesus

Below is a copy of the chart, I talked about in the lesson (Click on the image to download it) and following is the podcast and video on the topic. Below them is the transcript of the lesson.

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

2019-06-15 by bible805

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.

What if you had EVERYTHING? Money, power, romance?

What would you do with it?

In this podcast, we’ll talk about Solomon, a man who had everything, who enjoyed and used it all but ended up a bitter, sad, old man, who destroyed the unity of his nation because he would not obey God.

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.
