going beyond the weekly Sabbath service

Every year, on Lag BaOmer, we mourn the deaths of 24,000 students of Rabbi Akiva who died in a plague because, as the Talmud informs us, “they did not conduct themselves with respect for each other.” They loved each other, but didn't know how to deal with the differences of understanding among them.  Let's learn together how to create a culture of honor at City on the Hill.

For years, Danny Silk has been teaching, writing, speaking, and coaching on honor and how to express it in our families, churches, organizations, and communities. And for years, he has received the same feedback and questions around this powerful, challenging, and frequently misunderstood and misapplied concept, such as:

“You say that people of honor must be powerful, but to a lot of people, ‘powerful’ means dominating and selfish. What does it mean to be powerful?”

“If respecting our freedom and the freedom of others is crucial to practicing honor, what do we do when people cannot handle their freedom?”

“We tried to honorably confront someone, and the person refused to ‘clean up his mess.’ What do we do now?”

“I really don’t like confrontation. Doesn’t honor mean we should get along without conflict?”

“If we’re all trying to honor one another equally, does that mean there shouldn’t be any leaders?”

“Why does ‘honor’ always seem to turn into ‘entitlement’?”

The Foundations of Honor Study Guide addresses these questions and more through a comprehensive study of the core values, practices, and cultural effects of honor. Clear biblical teaching and illustrations, along with provoking questions and targeted action points, equip and train readers to examine their own foundations and build a solid foundation of honor in their lives, homes, businesses, churches, and communities. The Foundations of Honor Study Guide is designed to work with the Foundations of Honor Teaching Series as a 10-session course suitable for both individuals and groups.
