Curt Tomlin's New Book Offers a Comprehensive Proverbs-Based Reference on Living a Wisdom-Filled Life
The act of wise decision-making applies to everyone, but how can a person master this skill and apply it in their daily activities while sharing this skill with others around them? In The Book of Proverbs and Wisdom, A Reference Manual--which includes Chapter Narratives that provide guidelines for living a life guided by divine insight --Curt "CT" Tomlin shares biblical verses from the Book of Proverbs that people can use to grow spiritually in wisdom, knowledge, and understanding.
CHAPEL HILL, N.C., Dec. 11, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Book of Proverbs and Wisdom, A Reference Manual, represents CT's initial spiritually-devoted work, a compilation of heavenly advice given to mankind via the Book of Proverbs believed to be written by King Solomon of the Old Testament. This biblical text is filled with many facets of wisdom for numerous life situations, but one specific verse that could make a difference in a person's life would usually get lost in a sea of words. To make reading these biblical verses easier, including for those seeking direct wisdom, the writer collated and categorized similar verses according to their specific Chapter Theme.
While the source material is divine in nature, it offers guidance and timeless advice for people of all ages and backgrounds. Dubbed a "reference manual," "The BOOK" also contains Chapter Narratives that highlight the writer's direct experience with such Chapter Theme or biblical reference tools contained within the Bible that address such Themes. Through the Chapter Narratives, CT also highlights how the Chapter Themes and the associated biblical verses can have an impact on an individual's spiritual walk in Christ.
In addition to using the Book of Proverbs in this "reference manual," the author incorporates the advice given in the Old Testament to the words and acts of Jesus Christ. Many devout Christians look to the Son of Man as an example, and they study the Gospels intently to achieve a more meaningful understanding to be more like Jesus Christ. However, one must be consistent as well as seek higher levels of spiritual excellence, as one lives out his or her Life, "In Christ." The author reminds readers to let the kindness of Jesus move through their hearts and seep into their DNA, after making His Word, an essential part of one's daily walk "In Christ."
A native of Pasadena, California, CT has always had a knack for business and finance. A graduate of the University of Southern California and Harvard Business School, CT consistently strived for excellence during his ascension up the corporate finance ladder. After serving decades in the pharmaceutical and tech industries, he was on the verge of earning the title of CFO, but the Lord gave CT a choice. On his fifty-fifth birthday, the Holy Spirit spoke so strongly and reminded him of His goal that He wanted CT to work for Christ Jesus.
As with any person focused on fulfilling their professional ambitions, the author had to choose between his own career desires and the desire that Father God had laid out for him. "After reevaluating my lifelong business and professional goals, I knew that the Lord's work outweighed any personal, business, and professional goals of mine," CT said.
Thankful for the prosperous Life, Father God has provided CT over the years, the author has fully embraced one of his spiritual gifts, that being a "giver", and has generously given back to various community programs and needs. For example, the Durham Rescue Mission, Beautiful Gate Outreach Center, Mukhanyo Christian Academy, North Carolina A&T University – Speakers Bureau, Partners International and South America Mission, to name just a few. Some of those giving acts have included financial resources, as well as providing financial management assistance, business coaching, and leadership mentoring for aspiring executives.
