A Nail in a Sure Place: Bible Proverbs for Anyone Who Teaches (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781515084747)

During more than fifty years of teaching at all levels, Dr. Powell has taken a long and sober look at the Book of Proverbs. This has been distilled into this unique little book, A Nail in a Sure Place. From the perspective of theology, educational philosophy, and years of practical experience, he makes the Book of Proverbs come alive with practical insight and evangelical truth for anyone who teaches. Though written for teachers, this little book will prove a valuable resource for all who teach children and young people. It emphasizes what we are to BE before God, not what we DO, although it does not ignore doing. Even Mothers and Fathers can find help here for their homes and children. Under fifteen major divisions, Dr. Powell considers the educational implications of more than 50 Proverbs, as well as a great many other Scriptures. The book breathes of Scripture and makes the reader think and pray. From the Introduction: "A lifetime of Study and meditation has convinced Dr. Powell] that the Scripture, and especially the Book of Proverbs, contains the wisdom that the teacher needs to provide this secure, encouraging training. This book will share with you some of the results.
