Summary
Why do people who know better… still make decisions that cost them? In this episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures , we break down Proverbs 1… a foundational text that exposes a pattern most people don’t recognize until it’s too late: Bad outcomes rarely come from a lack of knowledge… they come from ignoring it. This chapter doesn’t present wisdom as hidden or complicated. It presents it as available… obvious… and often rejected . If you’ve ever looked back and thought, “I knew better”… this episode will challenge you to rethink how you approach decisions going forward. Because the issue isn’t access to wisdom… it’s what you do with it.
