Welcome back to Build Your Bible Habit! As you continue the habit of reading a daily chapter of Proverbs, you will develop an appetite for more Scripture. Gradually move from reading to studying, looking up unfamiliar words and studying other books of the Bible.  Over time, you will find yourself "handling matters wisely" and finding good outcomes more often (Prov. 16:20). Wisdom is a gift and a treasure, and God gives it to us freely. We just have to show up and "eat the meal" He provides from His Word. Daily.

Welcome to Teachback Tuesday, where we play the most popular episodes from previous seasons. This week's episode, "Blind Spots in Life" reminds us that there are some hazards that we may not be able to see without help. Have you ever almost side-swiped a car because they were in your blind spot? When new cars added the Blind Spot Warning system to vehicles, it really helped drivers to know when someone was in that zone. The system detects vehicles in the blind spot while driving and notifies the driver to their presence. Some systems provide an additional warning if the driver activates the turn signal when it is unsafe to merge or change lanes. Too bad there’s not a Blind Spot Warning system for everyday life. This episode covers three common blind spots and what we can do to detect them in our own lives.
