$26,720. That’s the average cost of a wedding in the US. Couples spend $1,628 on attire, $1,568 on flowers, $792 on invitations, and a whopping $11,908 on the venue.

Proverbs 4:1-9. Do you want to be respected as wise? Some of us assume that when we are older we’ll somehow just magically be wise. Some of us foolishly think we already are wise (when we aren't). Most people don’t really understand what wisdom is, and even fewer of us know how to become wise. As we tipoff our new series into the book of Proverbs, join me as we learn how to Get Wise.

Galatians 6:11-18. Sometimes it’s because we want to leave behind the mistakes of our past. Other times it’s because we want to become someone new.
