Title: What has Solomon to do with Google?  Old Testament Wisdom and our Culture

Description:

What does modern culture and technology have to do with the Bible?  We live in a world that bombards us with competing claims on our time—and offers different perspectives on what is wise, valuable, and worthy of our attention.  The wisdom literature of the Old Testament provides some helpful perspective for the questions that guide our lives: How do we measure success?  How should we love?  How should we live?  What is wise?   Join us for an introduction to the Book of Proverbs and conversation about what biblical wisdom has to do with life in the 21st century.

Anne Stewart is Vice President for External Relations at Princeton Theological Seminary.  She is a Presbyterian minister and the author of Poetic Ethics in Proverbs: Wisdom Literature and the Shaping of the Moral Self.  She is a graduate of Smith College, Princeton Theological Seminary (MDiv), and Emory University (PhD, Old Testament).  Anne grew up in central Pennsylvania and was raised in the faith at Camp Hill Presbyterian Church.
