This month we will complete our survey of Job begun last month. Then we will move on to a brief consideration of the Psalms (largely based on the teaching of Art Lindsley at the Ligonier Valley Study Center) followed by a short overview of Proverbs (written by Frederic Putnam).<\/p>\n

This month as you study, keep in mind the strong command of a father to his son in Proverbs 4:5: \u201cGet wisdom, get understanding.\u201d Such a vigorous pursuit characterizes a life lived coram Deo<\/i>,<\/i> striving to seek God while recognizing His presence in our pursuit.<\/p>\n
