Proverbs: Matters of Heart (Part 1)
ProverbsSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg emphasizes the importance of living a God-conscious life and having a pure heart. He suggests that the heart is at the center of everything, and that even seemingly generous actions may be insincere if there is negativity in the heart. Gregg notes that one's heart must be kept pure and that choosing to be humble allows God to give grace. He also cautions against relying solely on one's own heart, as sin and death can result from following it blindly.
