Platforms may impress, but they don’t withstand storms. In this episode of Wisdom & Wit , we turn to Proverbs 24 and explore how wisdom builds what flash can’t: a life that lasts. Solomon wasn’t chasing influence—he was laying foundations. Through this passage, we’ll uncover why discernment and knowledge—not charisma—are the real blueprints for legacy, family, and faith.
In This Episode:
- How to build your life on wisdom instead of applause
- What Proverbs says about lasting homes, not loud platforms
- Why guarding your heart is the construction site of faithfulness
Takeaway:
The wise don’t just build big—they build strong. Let’s lay every brick with purpose.
