Scripture
Proverbs 2:1-22

Whoever you listen to the longest will guide you the furthest.  

The Role of Parents as Influencers (2:1-5)

  • If you are going to teach your family anything, encourage them to pursue God’s wisdom.
  • A parent’s passion teaches a child what to prioritize.

The Role of Scripture as Influencers (2:6-11)

  • We know the will of God through the Word of God.
  • The Bible provides us with essential beliefs and expected behaviors.

The Role of Culture as Influencers (2:12-15)

  • The culture gradually distorts God’s expectations so that we won’t notice how far we’ve strayed.
  • If you surround yourself with those who rejoice in evil, you will begin to normalize it yourself.

The Role of Relationships as Influencers (2:16-19)

  • Do not trust any relationship that encourages you to drift from your God or your family.
  • Adultery promises to bring life, but it only brings death.

The Role of Church as Influencers (2:20-22)

  • The easiest way to follow God is walking beside others going in the same direction.
  • Many well-intentioned people never fully grow spiritually because they never truly commit to a church.
