Check out this mid-week wisdom moment and join us as we read and study through the book of Proverbs this month.

Wisdom Moment - June 26th - Proverbs 26:18-22

Wisdom Moment - June 18th - Proverbs 18:10-11

There are two stories that are connected by what’s happening at “the place of prayer”. Both stories involve women but one story is of a rich influential women who is receptive to God and the other is a demon possessed slave girl. In both these stories we see depictions of deliverance. From opening hearts’ and setting us free from sin, to setting people free from demonic possession. However, there is an opposition to God and those who benefit from injustice are ready to oppose God’s work, whether they be humans or demonic forces.

A Place of Prayer: Acts 16:13-21 (Road Trip 3 of 8)

This second parable will focus on value.The challenge of this parable is to reflect on the value of the coin. God isn’t celebrating how much we can do or what “value” we contribute but who we are. We may not be that valuable in the eyes of the world. Maybe we aren’t the most capable people and yet God rejoices in us being restored to Him. He actually likes us. He holds a “banquet” and has friends and neighbors over.

The Lost Coin: Luke 15:8-10 (The Lost Parables 2 of 3)

There is injustice in the world. How can it ever be made right? What hope is there for the child imprisoned in poverty or the women sold into slavery? In our world those with power can use it to marginalize and oppress those without. Who will stand against this injustice? God is the God of justice for the oppressed and marginalized. We cannot buy Him off, we cannot leverage God or put Him in our back pocket. God is the source of our hope for the oppressed and to see ultimate justice in the world.
