"Proverbs!!"

In my Men's Sunday School Class we will be beginning a study in the book of PROVERBS this Sunday!! I am very, very excited about that.  Above are my notes for the first Study....I will attempt to keep this to 10-12 weeks, all total.

I see a certain IRONY in this post....a few posts back, in my "High School" blog I pointed out how school was boring and I dropped out, but here I am TEACHING for almost 2 years and that is a LOT of fun (a lot of work, ALSO.)

Then, in my blog about Walgreen's recently I chastened them for cutting down two magnificent, decades-old PINE TREES and yet in my first "Proverbs" lesson I use the analogy of chopping down trees (read first two paragraphs in photo above, Lol)!!

In 1976, the year after I got saved, I started reading Charles Bridges' "Exposition of the Book of Proverbs" in my daily devotions and I fell in love with the book of Proverbs.  There is SO MUCH PRACTICAL WISDOM FOR DAILY LIFE in its pages!!

I'm excited for this fall kick-off!!  And I will be referring to Bridges' book (and other sources) as I lead THIS study.  I pray that the LORD will be glorified and the GUYS will be EDIFIED.
