The Foolish vs. The Righteous
Solomon gives many comparisons in this chapter between the foolish person and the righteous one. The righteous walk in God’s ways and enjoy blessing and happiness. The foolish go their own way and are heading toward disaster.
Bible Text: Proverbs 29:1-27
True Confessions
We continue on in our stay through the book of Proverbs.
Bible Text: Proverbs 28:1-28
Living To Praise God
Solomon begins this chapter addressing those who boast in what they’re going to do, and boasting in what they’ve done. But we shouldn’t be seeking praise for ourselves, rather our lives should be lived to praise God alone.
Bible Text: Proverbs 27:1-27
The Out Crowd
We look at a list of unsavoury characters in Proverbs 26. It’s a reminder of who to look out for and who we don’t want to be resembling in any way.
Bible Text: Proverbs 26:1-28
Solomon’s Similitudes
In this new section of Proverbs, Solomon gives many comparisons to show what our life in Christ should be like.

A Father to Son Chat
On this Father’s Day we continue our study through Proverbs and look at the insight and wisdom Solomon seeks to pass on to his son.
Bible Text: Proverbs 23:12-24:34
The Life Worth Living
Solomon concludes his discourse on life under the sun. He’s been seeing that it’s all vanity when lived apart from God. But life is not meant to be empty. Life is meant to be enjoyed when lived God’s way. We look at the life worth living in our wrap up of Ecclesiastes.
Bible Text: Ecclesiastes 11-12
Proverbs on Parenting & Profiting
We continue to look at Proverbs that speak into many areas of our lives, passing on wisdom that will help us to profit and prosper in life.
Bible Text: Proverbs 22:1-23:11
Planning, Pleasure, and Peace
The life of Wisdom is not a hard, mundane life. It’s a life recognizing that God’s ways are best. He’s the One in control, and we simply follow Him. When we do this we find it’s a life of pleasure and peace ultimately.
Bible Text: Proverbs 21:1-31
What’s The Point Of It All?
Solomon returns to a previous thought and concern – death. It seems that whatever anyone does, or how they live, it all results in the same conclusion, everyone dies and then that’s it. What’s the point of it all? This is Solomon’s question as he lives life under the sun and apart from God. Tonight we look at where Solomon is wrong and the hope we do have in Jesus!
Bible Text: Ecclesiastes 9:1-10:20
Choosing Wise Ways
We look at a number of choices available to us in life. How we respond in those situations reveal the wisdom we are walking in or the wisdom we are neglecting.
Bible Text: Proverbs 20:1-30
The Satisfying Life
We look at a number of key points in this chapter, but one thing really emerges: wisdom, obedience, and the fear of the Lord leads to the satisfying life.
Bible Text: Proverbs 19:1-29
