Think Like Jesus: Timeless Wisdom from Proverbs

by Dave Willis

What would it look like if God gave us a clear roadmap outlining His success principles for finances, work, marriage, faith, friendship, personal growth, conflict resolution, and nearly every other aspect of everyday life? It would be life-changing! The good news is that this roadmap already exists, and it's called The Book of Proverbs. For more than 3,000 years, the Proverbs have guided world leaders and people from all walks of life. Still, many have misunderstood wisdom to be a mystical force that can only be attained by a privileged few. The truth is God has made His wisdom available to all who will seek it. He doesn’t want His timeless truths to be a mystery! You just need a heart open to receive His instruction. In Think Like Jesus, Dave Willis distills all the main themes and lessons in Proverbs into thirty-one daily readings. This devotional will give a fresh perspective and be encouraging to the Proverbs scholar and first-time Proverbs readers alike! mFor anyone who wants to be at their best in all aspects of life and faith, Think Like Jesus could be a life-changing book!

Good devotional that goes with Psalms. I enjoyed it even though I am not a huge fan of devotional books. Would recommend to those who like daily devotionals or would like to try one.

Great but only 1 complaint

This book should be read and lived by every one. It represents the wisdom of the proverbs. I do think that the last chapter on women was glossed over and missing more content. The pray had one line about women and the rest addressed the whole book. So many needs of women and so much fruit in the 31st chapter about women. I feel as though it wasn’t captured. But overall a great book which i will be rereading over and over again.

Great read

Short, practical and pertinent wisdom shared from the Bible but made easy to understand and apply in todays life. Everyday was a different piece of wisdom to apply to your own life. Will read it again, and again.
