Wisdom Calls Aloud: A Guide for the Interpretation of the Book of Proverbs

In the book of Proverbs Solomon and other wise teachers instruct us to live by godly wisdom rather than worldly folly. Perhaps more than ever before people are guided by worldly folly with disastrous consequences. The book of Proverbs is an extremely practical book that helps us to live our lives in the best possible way. In Wisdom Calls Aloud I share the results of my efforts to hear God speak through this important book.
Christians often struggle to hear God speak through the Bible. Even Christian ministers sometimes do not understand the message of the Bible. The problem in part is that sound principles and methods for interpreting the Bible are not known or practiced. Instead, everyone does what is right in their own eyes.
In Ears to Hear: A Guide for the Interpretation of the Bible I provide principles, methods, and procedures for Christians and ministers as they seek to hear God speak through the Bible and communicate the message of the Bible to those who need a word from God. This guide supplements Ears to Hear by illustrating the principles, methods, and procedures introduced in that guide through practicing them on the book of Proverbs. This guide is not intended to be a detailed commentary on Proverbs. Instead, it contains the results of my personal struggle to hear God speak through Proverbs and determine the best way to communicate its message. Therefore, its value is primarily as an example for you as you undertake a similar struggle. Other volumes are also available that illustrate these principles, methods, and procedures on other biblical books including Obedient unto Death: A Guide for the Interpretation of Paul's Epistle to the Philippians and The Lion Roars: A Guide for the Interpretation of the Book of Amos.
