Saturday’s Weekly Recap with Graysen Pack
This week we’ve walked through another six chapters of Proverbs and found words that, although written thousands of years ago, still speak to the persistent struggles of human existence. Answers to guide us seek the wealth that God promises, to join God’s work as he defends the orphaned and poor, to earnestly engage in honest community, to be aware of the emotional strife of ourselves and others, and to use our words to build a church of sincerity.
It can be easy to forget that even when we read the oldest parts of the Bible, the words are still alive and active. And we don’t really read Scripture, but instead engage in a conversation with it. It isn’t a professor lecturing at us from the front of a large classroom. Instead, it is a dialogue that speaks to who, where, and when we are. The words of God are both alive in the history of Israel and the church as well as our lives today.
As you continue to read through the Word of God this year, remember that you are entering a conversation that will speak to your life and the life of the world today.
