Pursuit

Written by cycleguy on July 20th, 2018

In 1991 a series of books was started which has, in some way, revolutionized how we see things.  The book was DOS for Dummies. Amazon has a listing of over 20,000 books in the series. Opera for Dummies (as if…). Betting on Horses for Dummies (can you say I don’t stand a chance?). Potty Training for Dummies. Snort for Dummies (Snort is a security system). How scary would it be for you to pick your car or truck at the mechanics and on his workbench is Car Repair for Dummies? They even have Sex for Dummies.

Why the outrageous number of books? Because people are looking for answers. We are a do-it-yourself generation in many ways. For 20 years the Got Milk? ad campaign was seen in a variety of ways with different celebrities. It was retired in 2014. As you can see, my next sermon series which starts this Sunday is Got Wisdom? and as you can probably guess I will be in the book of Proverbs through the end of September.

This week I’ll define what wisdom is and then show how we can pursue wisdom. I’ll be in Proverbs 1:1-7 if you care to follow along. I invite you to listen to the podcast at the church’s website if you’d like.  Even if you don’t, prayers would be appreciated.

I mentioned in my last post that I was going to post more pictures of our remodel. I’m going to do that next week as a Before/After post. (I know. Now you wait with bated breath).
