Proverbs is neglected in preaching and liturgy and dismissed as a resource for community formation. In this study, texts from the book of Proverbs were woven into sermons and liturgy to determine how the book engenders neighborliness in a particular emerging congregation. An examination of four biblical texts (Prov 9:1-6; 6:1-5; 11:9-13; 27:8-14) in light of their teachings about neighborliness demonstrates the book's communal orientation. Proverbs' use in worship on sixteen Sundays spurs a congregation to exemplify neighborliness through worship, hospitality, service to the community, conversational interaction, and economic choices.
