Considered one of the more challenging books of the Bible for preachers and teachers, the book of Proverbs offers an optimistic view of life. If readers follow the advice of the sages preserved in this book, they are promised success and happiness. Getting at the many and varied nuggets of wisdom in Proverbs and effectively conveying them to others may seem daunting, but in Half Full, Wendell Bowes provides the essential tools for pastors and teachers who want to share the remarkable and encouraging treasures of this biblical book with their parishioners and students. Like its companion volume, Half Empty, on Ecclesiastes, Half Full includes sermon starters, presentation ideas, sermon title suggestions, and a substantial reference list.
