Proverbs 12 – The Path of Life and Death in Daily Choices - Charles Bridges
Charles Bridges unfolds Proverbs 12 as a gallery of vivid contrasts: the wise who love correction against the fool who hates reproof, the noble wife who crowns her husband against the disgrace that eats away at the bones, words that pierce like a sword against words that bring healing. Discipline, diligence, honesty, and peace mark the way of the righteous, while deceit, sloth, and pride consume the wicked. The chapter ends with a shining truth—the way of righteousness is life, and in its path there is no death.This recording is one chapter from Charles Bridges’ classic Exposition of Proverbs. The full audiobook is currently in production, and this episode was released on August 21, 2025.
