Mosaic Boston

In Matthew 10:16, Jesus tells his disciples "Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves." Jesus doesn't just call his followers to grow in innocence (though this is an indispensable part of the Christian life and a daily pursuit), He also calls us to grow in shrewdness, or Godly Wisdom. God's people ought to be characterized by a profound practical wisdom of how the word is designed, how things work, and how to strive in this world to bring flourishing to our lives, our family, our city and beyond. We are called to develop shrewdness in how we use our time, talent, treasure, opportunities, and all of life. Join us tomorrow as we study Ruth 4:1-12, where we learn numerous lessons about shrewdness from Boaz, as he makes some slick moves to position himself to marry Ruth, the woman he loves, and to start a family, which will ultimately be a blessing to the whole world.
