I generally enjoy Bill Hybels' books, and this one certainly contains its share of helpful and practical insights from the Book of Proverbs. However, it covers such a wide range of topics that by necessity it cannot delve too much in any one area. I'd rather see fewer topics covered in greater depth than lots of topics covered in a rather superficial, though entertaining, way. Also, don't expect in-depth Biblical analysis; generally, this is a hands-on book and not a particularly sophisticated treatment of the Biblical material.

I've enjoyed reading Bill Hybels almost as much as listening to hear him speak. His insights on the book of Proverbs made me realize just how valuable this book in the Bible really is. As well as offering practical advice for daily Christian growth, this book is also understandable and forthright towards seekers as well. Great for discussing spirituality with your non-churched friends.

This book outlines practical points from the book of Proverbs. I really enjoyed the examples, and many great points were made. This is also a good book for following within a small group.

This is a great book. I've read it several times and got something different out of it each time I read it. It's great for a small group, to go along with a study of Proverbs.

Thank you for your prompt service. You are a joy to do business with.
When I read people like Bill Hybels, I am looking for people who live their lives according to God's Word - especially those who treat others like they would like to be treated. I think Amazon does that as a company- I say that from the viewpoint of a consumer.

God bless you,
