We so need to get into the Scriptures and let the Scriptures get into us. The fact that Phil writes so relevantly and with such submission to Biblical revelation means that we are genuinely helped to be shaped by the Bible’s teaching.” -- Terry Virgo \u003cbr\u003e“Fresh. Solid. Simple. Really good stuff.” -- R. T. Kendall \u003cbr\u003e“Phil makes the deep truths of Scripture alive and accessible. If you want to grow in your understanding of each book of the Bible, then buy these books and let them change your life!” -- P J Smyth – GodFirst Church, Johannesburg, South Africa \u003cbr\u003e“Most commentaries are dull. These are alive. Most commentaries are for scholars. These are for you!” -- Canon Michael Green\u003cbr\u003e“These notes are amazingly good. Lots of content and depth of research, yet packed in a Big Breakfast that leaves the reader well fed and full. Bible notes often say too little, yet larger commentaries can be dull – missing the wood for the trees. Phil’s insights are striking, original, and fresh, going straight to the heart of the text and the reader! Substantial yet succinct, they bristle with amazing insights and life applications, compelling us to read more. Bible reading will become enriched and informed with such a scintillating guide. Teachers and preachers will find nuggets of pure gold here!” -- Greg Haslam – Westminster Chapel, London, UK \u003cbr\u003e“The Bible is living and dangerous. The ones who teach it best are those who bear that in mind – and let the author do the talking. Phil has written these studies with a sharp mind and a combination of creative application and reverence.” -- Joel Virgo – Leader of Newday Youth Festival \u003cbr\u003e“Phil Moore’s new commentaries are outstanding: biblical and passionate, clear and well-illustrated, simple and profound. God’s Word comes to life as you read them, and the wonder of God shines through every page.” -- Andrew Wilson – Author of Incomparable and If God, Then What? \u003cbr\u003e“Want to understand the Bible better? Don’t have the time or energy to read complicated commentaries? The book you have in your hand could be the answer. Allow Phil Moore to explain and then apply God’s message to your life. Think of this book as the Bible’s message distilled for everyone.” -- Adrian Warnock – Christian blogger \u003cbr\u003e“Phil Moore presents Scripture in a dynamic, accessible and relevant way. The bite-sized chunks – set in context and grounded in contemporary life – really make the Word become flesh and dwell among us.” -- Dr David Landrum – The Bible Society \u003cbr\u003e“Through a relevant, very readable, up to date storying approach, Phil Moore sets the big picture, relates God’s Word to today and gives us fresh insights to increase our vision, deepen our worship, know our identity and fire our imagination. Highly recommended!” -- Geoff Knott – former CEO of Wycliffe Bible Translators UK \u003cbr\u003e“What an exciting project Phil has embarked upon! These accessible and insightful books will ignite the hearts of believers, inspire the minds of preachers and help shape a new generation of men and women who are seeking to learn from God’s Word.” -- David Stroud – Newfrontiers and ChristChurch London\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONTENTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Straight to the Heart Series 10\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: Life Works God’s Way 12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLESSON ONE: LEARN GOD’S WAY (Proverbs 1–9)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo Won’t Do (1:1–7) 19\u003cbr\u003eThe Five Faces of a Fool (1:8–33) 23\u003cbr\u003eBetter than Money (2:1–22) 28\u003cbr\u003eThe Tree of Life (3:1–35) 32\u003cbr\u003eWater Supply (4:1–27) 36\u003cbr\u003eFree Chocolate (5:1–7:27) 40\u003cbr\u003eMake Tracks (6:20–24) 44\u003cbr\u003eChoose (8:1–9:18) 48\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLESSON TWO: LIVE GOD’S WAY (Proverbs 10–31)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSolomon’s Toolkit (10:1–22:16) 55\u003cbr\u003eThe Righteous and the Wicked (10:1–32) 59\u003cbr\u003eGod at Work (11:1) 64\u003cbr\u003eMoney Talks (11:16–28) 69\u003cbr\u003eWisdom is Contagious (11:30) 73\u003cbr\u003eStrong on the Inside (12:4) 77\u003cbr\u003eThe Strongest Muscle (12:6–13:3) 81\u003cbr\u003eThe Sluggard (13:4) 85\u003cbr\u003eTwo Ears, One Mouth (13:10–20) 89\u003cbr\u003eA Hearing Heart (14:12) 93\u003cbr\u003eGod in Disguise (14:20–31) 97\u003cbr\u003eBeads and Trinkets (15:16–17) 102\u003cbr\u003eHow to Make God Hate You (16:1–19) 106\u003cbr\u003eHow Not to Help the Poor (16:26) 110\u003cbr\u003eTwo Big Brothers (17:15) 114\u003cbr\u003eOmission (18:9) 118\u003cbr\u003eSwimming with Sharks (18:10–11) 122\u003cbr\u003eChristmas 1914 (18:17) 126\u003cbr\u003eHow to Murder Your Child (19:18–19) 130\u003cbr\u003eKindness to Fools (19:25, 29) 135\u003cbr\u003eGet Out of God’s Way (20:22) 139\u003cbr\u003eThe Last Word (21:30–31) 143\u003cbr\u003eSolomon’s Friends (22:17–24:22) 147\u003cbr\u003eFirst Things First (24:23–34) 151\u003cbr\u003eSolomon’s Missing Tools (25:1–29:27) 155\u003cbr\u003eWhen Good Men Do Nothing (25:2–28) 159\u003cbr\u003eThe Royal Mail (25:13–14) 163\u003cbr\u003eTomato Doesn’t Go in a Fruit Salad (26:1–16) 167\u003cbr\u003eCareless Talk Costs Lives (26:17–27:6) 171\u003cbr\u003eEnough is Enough (27:7–27) 175\u003cbr\u003eWhat God Hates about Sundays (28:9) 179\u003cbr\u003eA Straight Ruler (28:1–29:27) 184\u003cbr\u003eSolomon’s Students (30:1–33) 188\u003cbr\u003eChoose Your Co-Pilot (31:1–31) 192\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLESSON THREE: LOVE GOD’S WAY (Song of\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSongs)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLove Song (1:1) 199\u003cbr\u003eFrom a Distance (1:2–2:7) 203\u003cbr\u003eWaiting for the Day (2:8–3:5) 207\u003cbr\u003eWedding Day and Wedding Night (3:6–5:1) 211\u003cbr\u003eThe Wake-Up Call (5:2–6:3) 216\u003cbr\u003eVintage Love (6:4–8:4) 220\u003cbr\u003eLove’s Conclusion (8:5–14) 224\u003cbr\u003eLESSON FOUR: KEEP TO GOD’S WAY\u003cbr\u003e(Ecclesiastes)\u003cbr\u003eFlight 007 (1:1) 231\u003cbr\u003eLife Minus God (1:2–11) 236\u003cbr\u003eWell-Fed Fools (1:12–2:26) 240\u003cbr\u003eThe Return of Mr Incredible (3:1–15) 244\u003cbr\u003eDarkness and Light (3:16–6:12) 248\u003cbr\u003eFifteen (7:1–8:8) 252\u003cbr\u003eFifteen More (8:9–11:6) 256\u003cbr\u003eFighter Pilots (11:1–6) 260\u003cbr\u003eThe Return of the King (11:7–12:14) 264\u003cbr\u003eConclusion: Life Works God’s Way 268\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SPCK Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48737649295703,"sku":"9780857214263","price":10.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780857214263.jpg?v=1723811344","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/straight-to-the-heart-of-solomon-9780857214263","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
