Session Notes:

7:1-5: Introduction

7:6-23: Teaching

7:24-27: Summary

Discussion Questions:

1 Read Deuteronomy 6:4-9. How does the Lord want us to use everyday objects to remember what’s important?

2 How would you put the message of Proverbs 7:1-27 in your own words?

3 The son is described as “naive.” In the book of Proverbs, this is often someone who has yet to make a commitment. Why is it important to make a commitment about which road we will take early on in our lives?

4 How does the forbidden woman appeal to the youth’s five senses? Why do you think the father describes this scene in such detail?

5 Our culture teaches (along with the forbidden woman) that actions are not connected to consequences. Why does the father want his son to connect the dots between what he does and what happens as a result? How would connecting the dots help us in our lives?
