Righteous Living Within Community

Proverbs 3:21-32; 11:10-11
Rev. Joel St. Clair

Proverbs speaks often about how we treat our neighbors, and giving up our comforts to care for them well. While we may be quick to qualify, determining who is “deserving,” God gave up his life for those undeserving. By faith, we have the ability and freedom to give of ourselves.


Wisdom in the Bible deals with much more than learning facts or remembering information. It is a practice of synthesizing and applying the knowledge of God in our everyday lives. Ultimately, pursuing wisdom is an act of worship, as we gain insight towards righteous living from the True and Living God, who gives us his Spirit of understanding through Jesus.
