Something New Under the Sun: Ancient Wisdom for Contemporary Living – 16. AM I WISE OR AM I FOOLISH?
16. Am I Wise or Am I Foolish? I saw that wisdom is better than folly, just as light is better than darkness. The wise man has eyes in his head, while the fool walks in the darkness; but I came to realize that the same fate overtakes them both. Ecclesiastes 2:13-14 Sergei […]
Something New Under the Sun: Ancient Wisdom for Contemporary Living – 26. A TIME FOR WAR
26. A Time for War A time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a […]
The ABC’s of Wisdom: Building Character with Solomon – Motives
MOTIVES It’s the Thought That Counts All a man’s ways seem right to him, but the Lord weighs the heart. Proverbs 21:2 The man’s case was very simple. That he had been cheated out of his job was clear enough. That he had also lost his temper once or twice was also […]
The ABC’s of Wisdom: Building Character with Solomon – Pride
PRIDE The First Deadly Sin Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18 There are several difficulties in talking about pride, one of the most obvious being that it is hard to define but easy to spot. We all know a prideful person when we see one. But […]
The ABC’s of Wisdom: Building Character with Solomon – Rebuke
REBUKE Caring Enough to Tell the Truth Better is open rebuke than hidden love. Wounds from a friend can be trusted, but an enemy multiplies kisses. Proverbs 27:5-6 The King James Version says it elegantly: “Faithful are the wounds of a friend.” Being a man or woman of integrity means that you […]
The ABC’s of Wisdom: Building Character with Solomon – Understanding
UNDERSTANDING Learning from Your Mistakes Understanding is a fountain of life to those who have it, but folly brings punishment to fools. Proverbs 16:22 Some people never learn from their mistakes, which is why they repeat them. Others learn the first time and gain what Solomon calls “understanding.” It is an inexhaustible […]
The ABC’s of Wisdom: Building Character with Solomon – Integrity
INTEGRITY The Ultimate Virtue The man of integrity walks securely, but he who takes crooked paths will be found out. Proverbs 10:9 The dictionary uses words such as whole and complete to describe what integrity means. To borrow a modern expression, a man with integrity “has his act together.” There are no […]

The ABC’s of Wisdom: Building Character with Solomon – Leadership
LEADERSHIP Paying the Price to Lead the Way O my son, O son of my womb, O son of my vows, do not spend your strength on women, your vigor on those who ruin kings. It is not for kings, O Lemuel-not for kings to drink wine, not for rulers to crave beer, […]
The ABC’s of Wisdom: Building Character with Solomon – Love
LOVE The Glue That Holds Life Together Better a meal of vegetables where there is love than a fattened calf with hatred. Proverbs15:17 Several years ago I helped officiate at a wedding where the main ceremony was conducted by an older minister. He began his comments by saying that his wife had […]
