The way of the wise aligns our heart to Jesus and gives us full satisfaction. The way of self leads to overindulgence that suffocates our satisfaction and leads us to despair. The gospel frees us to direct our hearts to the way of Jesus.

Part 7: Wrath
September 18, 2022 • Pastor Rob Mayer • Proverbs 20:22
Everyone is born with an innate sense of justice because we’re all gloriously made in the image and likeness of God – WHO IS JUST! But the truth is we all want the offender to get what is coming to him because we all desire for JUSTICE to be served. Now this is good, but when we choose to accomplish this ourselves it’s condemnable wrath. The good news is that Jesus took our wrath along with every other condemnable sin when He absorbed the perfect just wrath of God on His cross at Calvary. Which means we can trust that every injustice will be set right in God’s timing when Jesus returns and as a result can let go and be delivered from the unbearable burden of wrath by the grace of God.
Part 6: Laziness
September 11, 2022 • Pastor Rob Mayer • Proverbs 24:30–34
The dictionary definition of laziness is the quality of being unwilling to work or use energy. It’s idleness, apathy, indifference or complacency. This means that laziness might be bigger than most people think at first and therefore could possibly expand to who is a sluggard. Laziness is a lack of productivity, but also excessive productivity in the wrong direction!
