Proverbs: Wisdom Passed Down

Today, we kick off 2025 with a four-week series on the book of Proverbs. Sarah Lyew begins with a look at the nature of wisdom and how we can both seek to have it and grow within it. Just a reminder that, if you would like to join the WhatsApp group for Proverbs in January, you can do so here.

Please find the slide deck for this week's teaching here.
