Pastor Rhode discusses topics from Proverbs 28 related to Christian living, including: - The theology of the cross vs. The theology of glory, and the importance of seeking victory through faithfulness rather than avoiding loss. - The need to avoid a defeatist attitude and instead actively work to improve society and the church. Warnings are given against pursuing wealth, materialism, and other worldly pursuits at the expense of spiritual matters. The value of receiving correction from others and avoiding flattery is espoused as a sign of wisdom.
