Practical Godliness: A devotional exposition of the Book of Proverbs

Keith WeberSKU: PG6950

Description

The proverbs are given for our instruction, learning and wisdom for life, and we must allow them to burn themselves into our thinking so that they find their outworking in practice. Wisdom does not merely acknowledge the truth of the statement, it probes deeper to understand why it is so, what the background factors are, and what is to be the best response to it. This should be the reader’s objective in pondering the Book of Proverbs.

COMMENDATIONS

This is a valuable resource for believers who want to get to grips with this very practical and down to earth book in our Bibles. At the end of the book there is a thorough word index and another of Scripture references.

Peter Seccombe, former pastor of Spicer Street Chapel, St Albans

I hope the book has a very wide readership and that the Lord will use it to impart that spiritual wisdom that we so desperately need.

Keith Underhill, former pastor of Trinity Baptist Church, Nairobi

The book of Proverbs is a treasure chest of wisdom. Keith’s book helps us to open up that treasure chest and to see the jewels within in all their beauty … I wholeheartedly commend this book to everyone who wants to seriously study Proverbs.

Kevin Mason, Elder at Kidderminster Evangelical Church

Wonderful exploration of a treasure trove of wisdom

What a book! I purchased 'Practical Godliness' a while ago and took my time to read through it (880 pages, not including index). There is so much that is precious here, so it pays to work at unearthing the gems and and to examine them carefully. It is not a book to be rushed.
From time to time, readers are encouraged to read other chapters of Scripture alongside the verse(s) under consideration. Therefore, to read the whole commentary is to mine much else in the Bible besides. In hundreds of cases, Keith Weber has provided thoughtful verse-by-verse reflection and application; where appropriate, his comments are on groups of verses.
Proverbs is a treasure trove of wisdom for Christian men and women from childhood to the grave. I think it's doubtful that someone could successfully tackle the challenge of writing such a commentary without the advantages accompanying decades of lived experience as a Christian. The author of this book certainly qualifies. His labour of love in 'Practical Godliness' makes this a uniquely comprehensive and stimulating guide to the book Proverbs.
