Do You Need Wisdom?
“Without counsel, plans go awry, but in the multitude of counselors they are established.”
Proverbs 15:22

Ponder This
Notice in verse 22, “in the multitude of counselors” this wisdom is established. If I had it to do over again, I would have more family counsels. We had family worship, but I would bring the family together. We would sit down, and I would listen to each person, and we would, as a family, say everything we had belongs to us equally. We would share the amenities and the responsibilities, and we would learn to make decisions together. We would make a family budget and we would stick to it. We would make decisions as a family about discipline and many other things. The parents are the head of the family, but there is wisdom in doing these things together.
- How have you experienced the truth that plans are established in the multitude of counselors?
- How does living this way help us to rely less on ourselves and more on God?

What is the mission of the Church?
Love Worth Finding's newest book, "A Final Charge to the Church, "is based on the final series of messages Pastor Rogers preached before retiring in 2005. Pastor Rogers wanted to prepare his congregation for the future. In doing so, he provided a biblically sound blueprint that applies to all Christians on topics including unity among believers, standing strong in opposition to the enemy (Satan), the power of the Holy Spirit to change lives, steadfastness in prayer, true worship, faithfulness to God's Word, caring for others, and the kingdom authority given to believers in Jesus Christ. The book is a great read for all believers who want to become better prepared, as the bride of Christ, to be radiant, pure, and faithful to Jesus, the living Word of God.
