Contrasts in Wisdom

Dec 28, 2025  •  Rev. Isaac Smith

This message explores James chapter 3 and the contrast between earthly wisdom and wisdom from heaven. We’re challenged to examine what truly shapes our decisions—selfish ambition and temporary priorities, or God’s eternal perspective. While everyday concerns like careers, health, and security matter, they were never meant to be our primary focus. Through Scripture, we’re invited to develop heavenly wisdom that filters every decision through a divine lens, shifting our investment from what fades to what lasts forever. This teaching calls us to move beyond knowledge and develop wisdom that transforms how we live, love, and choose.
