What is "stupid"? Are people born with it? Is it a mental disease? Can stupid be cured? According to Solomon, the ancient king of Israel, yes! Solomon was said to be wiser than anyone else in the world. If you could get personal advice from the wisest person on earth, would you listen? Proverbs is thirty-one chapters filled with Solomon's priceless nuggets of wisdom. Ours for the taking!Solomon wrote extensively about a subject that surprised me-stupid people. Stupidity is not a modern problem. Stupid people were around back when the world was flat! And they were just as annoying back then as they are now.We have all heard the statement, "You cannot cure stupid!" Solomon argues to the contrary. He says there is a cure for stupid. Solomon wrote, "Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise." Join me as we take a walk with Solomon through the pages of Proverbs. I dare say that this journey could be life-changing!
