Description

Join me this morning on 'A Moment with Hales' as we dive into the Wisdom Literature of the Bible, focusing on Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Job. Discover how these books provide practical tips and insights for day-to-day life, understand the Hebrew concept of 'hokmah' (wisdom), and explore the personification of wisdom in Proverbs. We'll discuss the challenges of understanding God's sovereignty in suffering, as highlighted in Job, and the quest for meaning in Ecclesiastes. Reflect with us on where you seek wisdom, how you approach suffering, and whether you are living with an eternal perspective. Enjoy this thoughtful and inspiring start to your day!
