Fool: Identifying and Overcoming Character Deficiency Syndrome by Garry D. Nation Seriouschristian.org https://www.amazon.com/Fool-Identifying-Overcoming-Character-Deficiency/dp/1629024627 Practical wisdom…in today’s less than ethical business climate-deep, thought-provoking, and entertaining. Phil Eubanks Corporate Ethics Compliance Professional Garry is a pastor and scholar with a passion for Christ, an innovative spirit, and an open heart. I have read his work with spiritual profit. Now it’s your turn to benefit: the Bible tells us that ‘wisdom is too high for fools’ (Prov 24:7). Find out for yourself and read this book. Professor Andrew Walker King’s College, London The question of ethical character (and its deficiency) has become a matter of lively public discussion in recent years and promises to be so for a long time to come-in private life, in politics, in business, in society. While the world tries to figure out how to restore character, it will not find better guidance than we already have in the Bible. Fool: Identifying and Overcoming Character Deficiency Syndrome is a forensic, worldview-conscious study of the fool and folly as depicted in the Bible, especially in the Book of Proverbs. The message of author Garry D. Nation is that character deficiency (folly) is a vicious, predictable, downward spiral of destructive personal choices. Moral upbringing and ethics training may interrupt and temper it, but God’s grace alone can cure it. Sometimes humorous, sometimes exasperating, sometimes tragic, but always engaging, Fool uncovers surprising insights into what makes us all tick. About the author Garry D.

We are living in a world that has been radically and profoundly changed by the Gift of Jesus, but most of us don't know it! As we conclude our INDESCRIBABLE series, we consider how Jesus is a world-changing gift.
When the angel speaks to Mary, heaven collides with earth. The promised King arrives not through power, but through surrender. God's eternal reign begins in an ordinary womb and an extraordinary act of grace.
Ps. Eddie MwesigyeJesus is God's indescribable gift that God planned for before man sinned. This gift is priceless, overflows with boundless grace and provides eternal blessings.
Look to Jesus this Christmas. Receive the reconciliation that he purchased. Don't put the gift on the shelf unopened.

Jesus is our indescribable gift! 2 Corinthians 9:15 Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! He is our gift throughout all eternity. God's gift to humanity that would make a way for humans to break out of the chains of sin and enter His true freedom! Once in a manger, now the King of Kings who lives forever and sits at the right hand of the Father. Eph. 1:20. “which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places,” Forever at the right hand of the Father as God's Gift to the world. Romans 8:34 “Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.” Incorruptible and Undefiled 1 Peter 1:3 & 4 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you.

Isaiah prophesies the suffering servant who is Jesus. He will be rejected by many because we are not naturally drawn to God's truth, goodness, and beauty.

Have you opened a gift only to discover it contained lots of other gifts? That's Jesus! And one more reason why Paul calls him God's INDESCRIBABLE gift.
Where do you feel the pull to hide? God moves towards us , not to condemn, but to rescue and restore.

One of the reasons Jesus is God's INDESCRIBABLE gift is because Jesus is the most surprising gift in all history. No one saw God's Savior coming the way he did. But our familiarity with the Christmas story means we often miss it's surprises.
With great power comes great responsibility. With any measure of power comes a responsibility to steward it well.
In a world full of tyrants and other situations outside our control, Jesus is born under a tyrant to be victorious over and overcome every factor outside of our control And as he overcomes all things, he is the prince of peace.

Pastor Scott preaches from 2 Corinthians.
In this moving episode of The Choice, Ashe in America and Ghost unpack “Indescribable Compassion,” a chapter rich with foreshadowing, tension, and some of the most powerful character moments yet. As Thanksgiving arrives, the hosts explore how the episode weaves biblical accounts with fictional elements to highlight themes of desperation, faith, and awakening. They walk through the emotional opening with the leper, shunned, humiliated, and clinging to hope, and discuss how the episode mirrors the ancient treatment of lepers with modern societal reactions during COVID. Ashe and Ghost break down the growing conflict around Jesus's rising influence, the uncomfortable pressure it places on the Pharisees, and Nicodemus's deepening spiritual crisis as he realizes something extraordinary is unfolding before his eyes. They also revisit the childhood story Jesus shares, Rivka's bold faith, the dramatic healing of the paralytic, and Shmuel's escalating fear as the crowd recognizes Jesus's authority. With thoughtful commentary, personal reflections, and scriptural connections, Ashe and Ghost illuminate how the episode sets the stage for the seismic shifts to come.
It is more blessed to give than to receive. Yep, that's Bible. Your generosity is an act of faith that causes an overflow of thanksgiving to God. What a great witness! What a great gift! In the spirit of thanksgiving, join us for a workshop of 2 Corinthians 9.

Where is happiness found? Is it found in unbelief, pleasure, money, position, or power? No. We will look at quotes from those who tried those routes and found them wanting. Where is it happiness found? In Jesus. Joy is related to a past event - a present reality and future experience. We will examine a passage of Scripture that highlights the true basis of joy.
