0:00.0	Welcome to Proverbs chapter 12 on Build Your Bible Habit.
0:04.9	Do you ever see yourself described in scripture?
0:08.2	If we'll take the time to study our Bibles in addition to reading them,
0:12.7	God can reveal where we may have slipped into unhealthy spiritual conditions.
0:17.8	Let's read chapter 12 together, but you'll want to go back and do a deep dive later.
0:25.1	Proverbs chapter 12, whoso loveth instruction, loveth knowledge, but he that hateth reproof is brutish.

1:59.8	The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he that hearkeneth
