Welcome to Chapel City Church! Two weeks ago we started to look at Family Wisdom from the Book of Proverbs. God, in his wisdom and grace, has given us the pattern for marriage and family that brings glory to Him and good to His people. This week we will work through Proverbs dealing with parents. Parenting is a difficult topic for a number of reasons. Our pride tells us that no one can tell us how to raise our children […]

This week in our study of Proverbs, we will look at the wisdom of faithful diligence in the work God has called each of us to, and a warning of the perils of laziness. The image of the sluggard’s overgrown field in Proverbs 24 is more than an observation about farming—it is a picture of the spiritual danger of neglect. But the answer is not simply to push ourselves harder. Rather, in Christ, our work flows from resting in his […]

Welcome to Chapel City Church! A couple of weeks ago, Charlie Rutledge helped us think through what it looks like to be wise in our friendships. This week we will begin to work through wisdom within our family relationships, specifically as husbands and wives. Although Proverbs is not an exhaustive manual on the specific functions and roles within a marriage, the book does give us practical guidance on what obedience looks like. Marriage was designed by God to bring him […]

Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so thankful that our YUGO team has made it back safely from Ensenada. Thank you for all of your prayers and support. We look forward to sharing some of what God did on the trip with you! This week we will look at what the Book of Proverbs has to say about fear. It’s something that we all struggle with at one point or another, even if we don’t want to admit it. […]

Welcome to Chapel City Church! This summer we are working our way through the Book of Proverbs with the goal of living wisely. We have seen that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. The Word of God is the source of wisdom and God uses His Word to transform our lives as we apply it to the big and small moments of our lives. This week we will consider the call to wisdom in our friendships. […]

Welcome to Chapel City Church! We have been working through the Book of Proverbs this summer with the goal of living lives characterized by wisdom. We will continue our walk through Proverbs and see what it has to say about anger and ways to avoid it. Anger is entangled in so many areas of our lives. We really need to see it as a serious sin issue, that will lead to many other sin issues, if it is not dealt with biblically.  If you […]

We have been working through the Book of Proverbs this summer with the goal of living lives characterized by wisdom. We know that the foundation of wisdom is the fear of the Lord. Last week we thought through our response to God in worship. But how do we respond to the world around us? If our families, our workplaces, and our culture were all characterized by righteousness and worship, then it would be easy! But we know that the world has […]

Welcome to Chapel City Church! As we work our way through the book of Proverbs, our goal is to put wisdom into practice. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and our greatest desire is to worship God with our whole lives. But what does worship look like? How do wisdom and worship overlap? If we know that wisdom is more than a collection of facts, then it makes sense that worship is more than a group […]

Welcome to Chapel City Church! This summer we are working our way through the Book of Proverbs with the goal of living wisely. We have seen that the fear of the Lord is the foundation of wisdom. We have also seen that the source of wisdom is the word of God. But how do we begin to gain wisdom? Often, we learn through reading and meditating on God’s word. As we study scripture, we know that God uses his word to […]

Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have come to worship with us today! So far in the Book of Proverbs, we have worked to lay the foundation for our application. We know that wisdom begins with the fear of the Lord. We know that wisdom comes from God through his word, and that in order to act wisely we must move in humility. This week we will begin looking at how wisdom is practically applied […]
