Description
Proverbs: Wisdom for Your Worldview takes an in-depth look at the instruction of wisdom and is designed to be a one-semester course with 85 lessons for 8th grade, though it could easily cross over to high school. The first quarter of this study answers the question “What is wisdom?”, beginning with a discussion of biblical wisdom and the purpose of Proverbs in chapter 1 and continuing with an expository look at wisdom’s character, instruction, and practical application in chapters 2–4. The second quarter, chapters 5–8, answers the question, “What is worldview?” This becomes a topical study of Proverbs based on the virtues of Philippians 4:8. Well-known Bible characters such as Abraham, Ruth, Daniel, and the Proverbs 31 woman show why wise living is worth pursuing. Each lesson concludes with a Grow in Wisdom or Worldview Conversation prompt to encourage articulation and application of biblical truth, and each chapter includes Path of Wisdom and Wisdom in Action activities to help students explore the development of biblical wisdom and godly virtue. Dig Deeper sections enhance lesson content with further study of related topics and are located in the second half of the student book and teacher edition. To encourage growth in Christ, students are encouraged to read a Proverb-a-Day and keep a journal. A free downloadable journal that includes prompts for students to read a chapter of Proverbs daily during this course of study can be found at abeka.com/ProverbJournal.

This study of Proverbs would be a great Bible program for every middle/high school student to go through. Because of the expository nature of the study, it would also be a beneficial Bible study for Sunday School, independent study, or a small group. All Scripture is taken from the King James Version. ~Amber
