A Woman's WisdomApril 30, 2012
How the Book of Proverbs Speaks to Everything Alumna Lydia Brownback (M.A.R., '93) recently published a book on the wisdom of the book of Proverbs, specifically geared towards women. Buy it at the Westminster bookstore. Publisher's Description: Advice books are no short-lived trend, even though much of the advice parading as “wisdom” proves shallow in the long run. What we need is biblical wisdom, and even more than that we need hearts set on the One who governs all our practicalities. The book of Proverbs unlocks the key to both, helping us to face very real challenges such as:
Unpacking the timeless counsel in the book of Proverbs, A Woman’s Wisdom teaches us to know the very Author of wisdom and to apply his relevant, how-to riches. See a video interview of Lydia Brownback with Justin Taylor below: "It is so refreshing to read a book that handles the kinds of things that every woman will face from one single perspective; the stunning wisdom of God. Too often books like this start with cultural assumptions that only serve to weaken their effectiveness in the end. It is only God’s wisdom that can help us navigate the pressures and insanities of the surrounding culture and teach us the freedom of being what we were created to be and living as we were created to live. Read and experience how God’s wisdom is eloquent and transcendent while being concrete and practical at the same time." Buy it at the Westminster bookstore. |
