Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio

When people think of Proverbs, they think of chapters 10 and the following. Here we are given series of wise sayings attributed to Solomon that contrast the behaviors and outcomes of the righteous and the wicked. The verses emphasize the value of hard work, integrity, and wise speech. They highlight that the righteous are blessed and bring joy to their parents, while the wicked create strife and misery.

Rev. Jason Bredeson, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Sacramento, CA, joins guest host Rev. Doug Griebenaw for Sharathon 2024 to study Proverbs 10:1-12.
