To begin the session:
Distribute copies of the “Words of Wisdom” exercise from the activity page, which you can download here. Have learners complete it individually in one minute or less before comparing responses with a partner.
Say, “Most proverbs help us make good decisions and point us to having positive relationships. Today, as we study the proverbs of Scripture, consider how we can apply their wisdom to our lives of faith and trust in God.”
To engage the learners in a study of the Scripture text:
Distribute the “World’s Way vs. God’s Way” activity from the activity page. Have learners work in small groups to complete as indicated.
