Not a Monster

"'What are you goinna do?'"
Trey Edward Shults'sWaves (2019)


Points for Reflection

The Bible: Proverbs 10: 1-12

  1. Why might the author emphasize different child behaviors when emphasizing potential reactions from male and female parents (v.1)?
  2. Do the binaries provided in this chapter paint equally detailed portraits of righteousness and unrighteousness?
  3. What kinds of spoken words does the author discourage?
  4. What might a malicious wink (v.10, NIV) look like?
  5. What is and is not implied in the claim that "love covers all offenses" (v.12, NRSV)?

An abstract, dimly lit night scene viewed from directly above. Carousers talk and caress one another. Drinks and wine bottles appear in hands and on circular tables scattered throughout the room.
