Adventure travel built for families

Intrepid Travel has just launched its new Premium Family range — eight new trips across Costa Rica, Sri Lanka, India, Borneo, Vietnam, Morocco, Thailand and Egypt. Small groups of three to five families. Intrepid's most experienced local guides. Immersive, kid-focused activities and elevated stays, with all the logistics handled for you. Watch baby orangutans learn to climb in Borneo. Stargaze at a desert camp in Morocco. Spot leopards on safari in India. These aren't holidays where you watch the world through a window — they're the kind of trips kids remember when they're grown up. Bookings for Intrepid's Family range grew 19% in 2025, and their new Premium tier is their fastest-growing travel style for good reason.

Bible Study

Today: Proverbs 30, ESV

Read the full chapter in the ESV translation, then use these questions for a short table or porch conversation.

Context for the book

Proverbs gathers wisdom instruction for people learning to fear the Lord in everyday life. It trains readers to recognize the difference between wisdom and folly in speech, discipline, money, work, family, friendship, and desire. Today's reading focuses on daily wisdom for speech, work, family relationships, humility, money, justice, and the fear of the Lord.

Context from the previous chapter

Proverbs is arranged as wisdom for real life rather than a single long argument. Read today's chapter as part of that larger training: the surrounding chapters keep contrasting wisdom and folly in speech, desire, discipline, friendship, money, and household choices.

1. What does it say?

  • The passage gives short, memorable sayings that compare the wise path with the foolish path.
  • It pays attention to ordinary decisions: words, work, money, anger, family life, neighbors, and habits.
  • It keeps pressing the reader to choose teachability over pride and steady faithfulness over impulse.

2. What does it mean?

  • Wisdom is practical trust in God worked out in repeated daily choices.
  • The main point is not just to admire wise sayings, but to become the kind of person who receives correction and acts with restraint.
  • The chapter belongs to the larger Proverbs pattern: small choices form a household, a reputation, and a life.

3. How does it apply to my life today?

  • Notice one place where American life rewards speed, outrage, or image, then choose the slower wise response.
  • For parents and grandparents, use today's chapter to shape the tone of the home: fewer lectures, clearer examples, more patient words.
  • For spouses, ask where wisdom would make the next conversation simpler, kinder, or more honest.

4. What habit, thought, desire, or practice should change?

  • Choose one proverb from the chapter and turn it into a concrete action before bedtime.
  • Replace one complaint with a prayer, a thank-you, or a direct act of help.
  • Ask your spouse or family where your words have been building up and where they have been wearing people down.
