Taking Action: Create Wisdom-seekers and Not Smart Alecks
While commuting to the office of The John Birch Society (parent organization of The New American), I have some substantial windshield time each day. I greatly enjoy spending part of that time listening to Christian programming, including church sermons from various denominations.
I particularly enjoy listening to the late Adrian Rogers of Love Worth Finding Ministries. He had so many good, timeless quips.
Proverbs 9:10 records for us: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” In one of his related sermons, Rogers said, “Knowledge comes from looking around; wisdom comes from looking up.”
