The Wise Vs. The Fool: Proverbs Pt. 2

Proverbs on Family

Drawing from Proverbs 24:3-4, Pastor Zach Daniel teaches that the same wisdom, understanding and knowledge God used to create the cosmos is available to every family today, an invitation to bring God to the center of family life. The fear of the Lord becomes the cornerstone that secures a household, marriage is cultivated through both delight and discipline and parents are called to mirror God's love by combining genuine delight with loving correction. God wants to give His church an anointing to restore and strengthen families, bringing redemption into broken histories and wisdom to every season of family life.

How to Choose Your Friends

In this message from Proverbs 13:20, we are invited to discover what the Bible teaches about choosing good friends and becoming a good friend. Friendship is not passive; it requires intentionality and developed skills. The book of Proverbs offers practical wisdom on how to cultivate godly friendships and become the kind of friend God calls us to be.

The Wise Vs. The Fool: Proverbs Pt. 2

In this message from Proverbs, Mick Murray defines the difference between the wise and the fool, noting that it comes down to a posture of listening. Drawing from over a dozen passages in Proverbs, the sermon traces a consistent thread: the wise receive commandments, desire to understand, heed advice and restrain their words, while the foolish talk too much, vent without restraint and dismiss or even reject correction. Wisdom is not merely about having information, but about the skillful application of that information; the fool is simply the absence of wisdom, just as darkness is the absence of light.

The Need for Wisdom: Proverbs Pt.1

Pastor Mick Murray opened our summer series through Proverbs, asking the question, "Where are we spurning wisdom today that might lead to burning the house down in the future?" Drawing from Proverbs 1:1-7, he defined wisdom as hearing God's Word and walking in His ways, a definition that finds its fullest expression in Jesus Christ, whom Paul calls "the wisdom of God." He unpacks what wisdom is, why we need it and how we get it. As followers of Jesus, we are commissioned to bring order out of chaos in our homes, relationships and communities, and walking in God's ways tends to produce righteousness, justice and equity. He also describes how we gain wisdom through three postures: making space to hear God through His Word and Spirit, humbly seeking guidance from trusted people who bear godly fruit and cultivating the fear of the Lord.

Words That Reach Heaven

Pastor Carl Gulley delivers a Graduation Sunday message rooted in Isaiah 55:11, reminding graduates and the church that while we do not have what it takes in our own strength, the Word of God does. Through stories of his mother faithfully praying Scripture over their family, Jesus using Scripture in the wilderness, and Jason Ramos’ testimony of transformation, Carl called believers to pray God’s Word over their lives, families, struggles, and transitions, trusting that His Word will not return empty but will accomplish His purposes.
