Author Description

Our world is always looking for good advice. Whether it s about how to succeed in love, in business, or in life itself, we want to know. From check-out lines to TV psychologists to the internet, self-help is and always will be hot. This is natural. Life is hard. Finding good advice is harder. We wade through fad after fad, column after column, psychologist after psychologist. Still we come up empty. You hold in your hand a way of wisdom that is very, very old. Long before TV, psychologists or the internet, God s Word spoke to the deepest longings of our heart. God showed us how to succeed in life. The Way of Wisdom has nothing to do with fads or theories. There is nothing "pop" about it. Instead, God shows us through it who we are, what life is about, and how we can live it well. These four works from the Bible Job, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Solomon offer us better advice than any other source could ever hope to. Job shows us what a human being is and where our comfort comes from. Proverbs teaches us how to succeed, whatever our path may be. Ecclesiastes teaches us what lasts and what doesn t. The Song of Solomon shows us what true love is all about. Translated afresh from the Latin Old Testament, The Way of Wisdom offers us the Rock, the Word of God, on which we can build our lives. May God bless your life as you read His Word. "
