Prov 1:1-7 & Eph 4:7-16A stroke of genius on someone’s part has us hear the opening verses of the Book of Proverbs as we consecrate to the Lord and place in His hands the ministry of Harold Ristau as founding president of Luther Classical College. Ever since the cultural changes of the 1960s started their advanced demolition work on Church and State and everything in between, Israel’s beautiful and sonorous Wisdom literature has been a sadly neglected portion of Sacred Scripture.
