Introduction to Wisdom: Welcome to Called and Capable Podcast, Season 2, Episode 11! Host Sarah Sillers, founder of CalledandCapable.com, dives into the heart of wisdom, a key pillar of Practical Christian Living. Drawing from the Book of Proverbs, this episode offers actionable insights to make godly choices and live with peace, empowering you to embrace your God-given calling. #CalledAndCapable

The Foundation of Wisdom: Wisdom starts with the fear of the Lord, as taught in Proverbs 9:10. Sarah explains how prioritizing God fosters spiritual maturity (Proverbs 22:6). Unlike knowledge, which guides specific decisions, wisdom provides discernment to navigate life’s gray areas with faith, purpose, and confidence.

Wisdom vs. Lady Folly: Discover the contrast between Lady Wisdom and Lady Folly. Wisdom reflects Christ’s character—speaking truth, sharing the Gospel, and embodying the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control). Lady Folly tempts with deceptive, destructive words. Sarah shares how to avoid Folly’s traps through discernment rooted in God’s Word.

Practical Steps to Live Wisely: Sarah offers three essentials: speak truth, share the good news, and speak life into others. By reading Proverbs daily (31 chapters, one per day), praying, and aligning actions with Scripture, you can cultivate a peaceful, purpose-driven life. Discernment ensures your choices glorify God.
