Wake Before the Day

Wealth without wisdom is destructive. Wisdom without wealth can be good. Wisdom and wealth together are powerful tools in God's hands. Walk humbly.

God looks past outward appearances and sees the heart. It's good to reflect not only on what is said and done but also the motivation behind them.

Proverbs 14 shows how wisdom builds strong lives, families, and futures that last.

Desire with no discipline is destructive. Desire with discipline will lead to a fruitful life!

What do your words, work, and habits reveal about the condition of your heart?

Not cursing is not the same as blessing. Silence can be good. Today brings opportunity to speak life. What will it be?

Proverbs 10 reveals how wisdom, words, work, and integrity shape a life that lasts.

Initially the ways of wisdom and foolishness may look similar but they end up in vastly different places. We need discernment!

Godly living should be persuasive. Do your words and life align? Wisdom is a giver not a taker.

Proverbs 7 reveals how sin seduces and destroys, calling us to wisdom, vigilance, and God’s way.

The sluggard (laziness) and the scoundrel (thief) act in unloving ways. Fire can be an instrument of death or life. The difference? Self-control!

Proverbs 5 reveals sin’s empty promises and calls us to wisdom, purity, and God’s better way.

Receive wisdom and pass it on. Leave a legacy behind you that will last and glorify God!

We're called to trust, obey, and surrender to God, who leads us into wisdom, peace, and life.

God's "word and way" act as guardian and guardrail for our life. Accept, remember and apply God's word to your life today!

Wisdom is not a secret, it is not found in a game of spiritual hide and seek. God is available and wants you to be wise!

This Psalm begins and ends pointing out God's righteousness - let's call it a righteousness sandwich! The heart of the Psalm tells us to spend time reflecting and meditating on God's past faithfulness, a common theme in this book!

Psalm 121 holds a special place in our heart. It is one of the first passages of scripture we memorized as a family. It tells us that God not only watches over us but he protects us day and night and in our coming and in our going! Join us as we see what we learn about God and ourselves in this chapter.

While praise and worship can take many different "shapes and sizes", this Psalm is all about loud shouts of praise and joy filled worship songs. In this podcast we'll discuss who God is and what he has done!

Blessed are those whose hearts are set on pilgrimage! (Psalm 84:5) We were created for a relationship with God, and the Psalmist says those who go through the ups and downs of this life focused on God will be blessed. Let's unpack this encouraging chapter that wraps up reminding us that God doesn't withhold any good thing from those he loves!

The Psalmist names something we have all experienced at some point - envy of those in the world and are successful. We wrestle with the idea that the "grass is greener on the other side" when in reality it rarely is. Let's unpack Psalm 73 together.

We all go through "wilderness" seasons but we all go through these seasons differently. Is our focus on the Lord or our problems? Regardless of what we're going through King David invites into praise.

In Psalm 51 King David walks us through his confession in light of his adultery with Bathsheeba and the murder of her husband. In the midst of the pain, this Psalm is a beautiful gift for us today as we too need to be walking to continual repentance.

Psalm 40 begins with thanksgiving and ends with lament. It talks about trusting in God and doing his will while pleading for protection from enemies. The Psalmist gives us a reminder to always focus on God's faithfulness, regardless of our circumstances. How has God been faithful in your life? Let's unpack this.

Psalm 32 shows us that confession is a great gift. While it can be terrifying to confront our sin it is definitely a gift and something God calls us to. Join us as we unpack the gift of confession (and food poisoning)!
