## Resource

This week, Pastor Joshua takes us back to our Biblically Obscure series. Through the story of Abigail in 1 Samuel 25, we see how godly wisdom steps into tense moments before they become destructive. This message explores how wisdom recognizes where emotions are leading, responds with humility, brings peace into conflict, and calls people higher instead of fueling escalation. One wise response can completely change the outcome of a situation. Listen in and discover how God can use wisdom to bring peace, direction, and restoration in the middle of life’s most difficult moments. "I said yes to Jesus!" - Click Here!
