Matthew Mead's The Christian's Duty to Walk Wisely is a practical exploration of the believer's spiritual journey, addressing the holy command for Christians to navigate life with wisdom and grace. Anchored in Ephesians 5:15-16 and Psalm 131, this work challenges and encourages readers to live with godly discernment and contentment in the midst of temptations.

The first sermon, Walk Wisely, explores the Christian's responsibility to live circumspectly in a fallen world fraught with temptation and evil. Mead exhorts believers to navigate life with spiritual wisdom-avoiding folly, redeeming the time, and relying wholly on the grace of Christ. Through rich biblical exposition and practical application, he addresses the nature of temptation, the dangers of self-confidence, and the necessity of prayer, faith, and reliance on Scripture. With clarity and pastoral insight, Mead equips Christians to triumph over sin and stand firm against Satan's schemes.

The second sermon, The Power of Grace, takes its cue from David's confession in Psalm 131: "Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother." Mead explores the heart-transforming work of grace that weans the believer from worldly affections and fosters a spirit of humility, contentment, and childlike dependence on God. He examines the believer's resemblance to a weaned child-helpless yet trusting, detached from earthly vanities yet nourished by the rich promises of God. This sermon offers invaluable guidance on finding satisfaction in Christ and cultivating a life rooted in heavenly affections rather than temporal comforts.
