BONUS: The Righteous Rise Again

This past Sunday morning, the last before the New Year, IFI’s Dave Smith gave this exhortation at his church. We are posting the audio here as a special addition for those who may be interested.

Proverbs 24:15 tells us that “a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again.” As we go into a New Year, we know from experience that we will have challenges and opportunities to be faithful and resilient. We will also have occasions where we want to simply give up.

Scripture tells us that we should resolve to rise quickly after we happen to stumble… after we fall, and get back on the straight and narrow path that God calls us to.

This is a good reminder as we start off the year!
