Who Owns Your Heart?: Getting Personal with the Book of Proverbs

Life is shaped by the decisions we make. Good decisions lead to better outcomes in relationships, finances, and dealing with the uncertainties of life. Intelligence and knowledge alone are not adequate in venturing into the unknown future. Wisdom is crucial. But what is wisdom? Biblical wisdom is an acquired skill that leads to living a more satisfying and meaningful life.

So, how does one acquire wisdom? In WHO OWNS YOUR HEART?, Dr. Paul Vallee guides the reader through the biblical book of Proverbs, where wisdom is discovered and then communicated through life-learned experience and Divine revelation. At the core of decision making is the nature of our 'heart.' It is the core of who we are and must be understood and guarded.

Moving through the chapters, certain themes arise that will inspire, instruct, and instill confidence to live a rich and rewarding life. The following are some of the elements that will be considered:
- Avoiding life's most dangerous pitfalls.
- Learning how to choose a faithful life partner.
- Discovering the power of words.
- Insight into how we are influenced and shaped by social pressures.
- Building healthy and meaningful relationships.
- Creating a healthy approach to finances.
- Developing meaningful goals that will shape your future.
- Finding out how to live in one's community and the role of government.
- Dealing with life's injustices.
- How to cultivate a meaningful relationship with God.
