Warnings against adultery are the largest sections in Proverbs. In this message, we see God's intention for faithfulness and unity in marriage, the danger and destructiveness of adultery (in it's many forms), and a strong call to stand in faithfulness to your current or future spouse.

There are people who lead us toward life and people who lead us toward death. One who is wise chooses carefully who they walk with. Proverbs advises us as to who we should choose to influence us and how we maintain a friendship with them.

While two paths lie before us, our posture before God will ultimately determine which we choose. Proverbs lays out two attitudes that lead to drastically different paths--fearing the Lord, which is the beginning of wisdom; and pride, which incurs God's wrath.

There are two paths to choose from--one that leads to life and one that leads to death. God gives us wisdom because He loves us and wants to guide us toward the path of life. The wise person listens to God's wisdom and is led by it. The fool is deceived in thinking that the other way is better. This message is an overview of Proverbs setting us up to dig into the themes of the book in upcoming weeks.
