Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

Last week we began to take a look at what the Bible had to say about pride. So far, we have learned from Proverbs 11:2, that "When pride comes, then comes shame," and from Proverbs 29:23, that "a man's pride will bring him low." Below we will see more on the subject from Proverbs!

God Bless You!

--FEATURED FUNNY:

Growing up as a kid, I learned all about capitalism through the board game Monopoly. I mean, what better way to teach a young mind the way our economy functions. I loved this game and still do. Only now, as an adult I have some questions that remain unanswered.

For instance, if I have all this money and own all this real estate... why am I still driving around in a thimble?
