Hearing (2 of 5)
Series: Making Sense of Our Senses

Proverbs 20:12


We are in the middle of a five part series of messages under the heading:

*Taste (through our tongue)

*Sight (through our eyes)

*Hearing (through our ears)

Did you enjoy your meal tonight? Did you eat enough? Let me tell you why that concerns me. It is a known fact that a large meal will temporarily make your hearing less sharp! So what that means is tonight that I'm going to speak a little LOUDER than normal. I said that I'M GOING TO SPEAK A LITTLE LOUDER THAN NORMAL. Can you hear that?

If you can hear me, look with me to Proverbs 20.12 where the Bible says, ''The hearing ear and the seeing eye, The LORD ...
