Sunday PLUS, Proverbs 2
Tomorrow we’ll be carrying on with our look at the book of Proverbs, in the Old Testament, and what it can teach us.
Andy B begins this week’s theme, “Honestly, I’m fine”, with a reminder of how skilled we can become at hiding our emotions through “Sunday smiles”.
He warns us that sometimes people will ask us how we are without really wanting to know the answer, reminding us to only ask a question if we are willing to hear the response.
He relates how honest David, of the Bible, was towards God, when writing many of the Psalms.
Endurance is your weekly spiritual workout, whether you think of yourself as a beginner, an intermediate, or advanced!
Explore with us what it means to be honest in our fifth episode of season four: Honestly, I’m Fine.
Life can be full of challenges!
Sometimes it is the difficulty of making, what should be, a really simple decision. But, with age, comes wisdom. And with wisdom comes arrogance. Without God’s intervention, we’d be doing life on our own. Wait, don’t we do that anyway?
The good news for those of us who love Jesus, is that when He died, rose and again and ascended to Heaven, Jesus didn’t leave us on our own to figure things out.
Go Deeper with Andy B, as he explains how we make sure we’re going in the right direction.
He touches on the armour of God, in particular the shoes of the gospel of peace.
In reference to Habakkuk 3:19, he looks at deer, climbers, and athletes being sure-footed and confident due to knowledge, practice, and experience.

Explore with us as we talk about what we should do when we hit a ‘fork in the road’.
We all know the game spot the difference. Sometimes those differences can be so subtle, they can appear almost identical.
But look long enough, and you’ll start to see the difference. The longer you look at the two images, the more they can look the same. But if we compare to just one of them, those differences start to stand out!
It’s like with spotting counterfeit money – we check what the genuine stuff looks like, and the fake stuff starts to stand out.
Andy B tells the story of Fishermen who listened to Jesus and put their nets on the other side of their boat to catch so many fish they needed help to collect it all. This was after they had caught no fish all day – what a catch!
Andy B tells the story of another miraculous happening – the invasion of the frogs. Unlike our neighbouring pond, there were not 10, not 20, not 30, but 1000s of frogs all over the place, even in cereal boxes if they had them!
Andy B tells us about another miracle, this time a guy called Moses saw this bush when he was out with his sheep. What was interesting was that the bush didn’t burn up – it was in perfect shape, even though it was on fire. It’s alright Moses didn’t burn himself – he was a sensible shepherd, not a silly shepherd!
Andy B tells the story of the Miracle – Parting of the Red Sea. This time without the Story Book; totally from memory – will Andy B get anything wrong?
Story Time Andy B tells the story of Ernie, the Building Manager who is shocked by what happens to a house built on glass when the rain comes and pleasantly surprised by a house built on firm foundations. Ernie and his friends know what house they prefer!
