What does ancient Israel’s most prosperous king have to teach us about living wisely today?
Beloved Our Daily Bread author Bill Crowder offers practical application for the twenty-first century from the life of King Solomon, who was blessed with understanding “as measureless as the sand on the seashore.” In six chapters, Crowder unpacks the well-known and lesser-known successes and failures of the person the Bible says was the wisest man to ever live.
From Solomon’s wisdom and folly, you will learn how to apply scriptural truths to everyday decisions, relationships, and difficulties. Discover how to trade pride and self-reliance for a humble, daily dependence on God.

He has published more than 20 books including Wisdom for Our Worries, has written many Bible-study booklets, and cohosts the Discover the Word podcast.
