The Nature of Wisdom
So be careful how you live. Dont live like
fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most

wants you to do. Ephesian 5 15-17

Five Biblical Foundations
We all have been given a PURPOSE for our
lives. We are most FILLED when we are
fulfilling our purpose. Not everyone UNCOVERS
their God-given purpose. Our purpose is BUILT
from our personal inward design. We will be
JUDGED on our obedience to our God-given calling
in life.
