For I Know the Plans I Have For You

There are some individual verses of the Bible that are commonly used and referenced... Usually out of context. You could call this “cherry picking” scripture or “proof texting.” What would happen if we re-read the passage in its original context? It might just change the way we see God, ourselves and world around us. Join us over the next couple of weeks as we reframe well-known bible passages and highlight the skills of contextual bible-reading and asking good questions!

JULY KIDS THEME | GOD IS WISE

Solomon wrote the book of Proverbs after God answered his prayer and gave him great wisdom. We should seek wisdom. Wisdom is understanding a situation and knowing what to do. God loves us so much that He sent His Son to die for our sins. But His love doesn’t stop there. God has much to say about human friendship and how we use our words and resources. We can trust His ways and apply what we learn from Him.
