Rather than giving us step–by–step instructions on how to live a more efficient, productive, and successful life, the ancient book of Proverbs encourages us to meditate on the person, posture and pace of wisdom. In this valuable book, Zack Eswine shows us how Jesus exemplifies these things, and emphasizes the importance of relating wisely to people, including to ourselves, before considering how to grow wiser in life skills. Biblical wisdom invites us to seek wiser hearts in communal rather than lonely ways. This book is a treasure for anyone seeking to live life more wisely.

Zack Eswine is the sage our modern church culture needs. He will deny it, but that will prove the point. Wisdom seeps out of every pore of this book.

In a culture that offers endless opportunities to hone our skills and our knowledge, Zack Eswine invites us to hone our wisdom. I closed this book feeling deeply loved, expertly counseled, and filled with hope.

… a profound and deeply human guide to embodying Christ–like wisdom …

In a culture that idolises the new and the strong, the Bible’s ancient voice of wisdom gets drowned out or ignored. What’s needed is for some in our generation to plumb its depths and then translate afresh the better way in the old, old story, and this Zack has achieved superbly.
