King Solomon asked God for wisdom,

and the book of Proverbs is what He gave us.

Over the years, I’ve had a lot of fun turning the timeless wisdom of Proverbs into cartoons. These are my attempts to… take ancient truth and make it relatable — sometimes funny, sometimes thought-provoking, and always with the hope that God’s Word sticks with you a little longer.

I’ve organized them by chapter groupings so you can easily browse the ones that interest you most.

Whether you’re looking for a laugh, a reminder, or just a fresh way to see familiar verses, I hope these cartoons bless you.

Practical Wisdom for Everyday Life These early chapters focus on the basics — the fear of the Lord, the importance of wisdom over wealth, and the dangers of foolish living. Lots of cartoons about listening to good advice, avoiding bad company, and the difference between the wise and the foolish.

Character, Relationships & Daily Conduct This section dives into how we treat others, the power of our words, integrity, humility, and the blessings (and curses) that come from how we live. Expect plenty of cartoons about marriage, friendship, gossip, laziness, and the power of the tongue.

Of course none of us think we need a guide book to identify foolish behavior since most of us own a TV these days, and there are fools everywhere. The evening news for example nightly reminds us Washington DC is as a whole a ‘ship of fools’ drifting out to sea. Sports is dominated by big men with very little impulse control resulting in millionaire athletes declaring for bankruptcy, dating OnlyFan models all while juggling multiple paternity suits.

Solomon shares words of wisdom regarding the blessing of not having a nagging wife, or it goes without saying, maybe a man who snores. A good name is priceless, an honest answer is a good thing, drinking too much is bad, and there is such a thing as too much of a good thing… like honey… and I love honey. Also, I have paraphrased Solomon to imply a woman can learn karate by waxing he legs and other places…. and finally don’t argue religion with other people… especially me, because if you argue with me, you would be WRONG. Just sayin’

Deep Wisdom, Leadership & The Famous Ending. These final chapters cover everything from the heart of a king to the famous portrait of the virtuous woman in Proverbs 31. You’ll find cartoons about pride vs humility, justice, work ethic, parenting, and the kind of person God delights in.
