The Fool Doesn't Change
In a world that often values stubbornness and sticking to our guns, we’re reminded today of a deeper, wiser path. True wisdom isn’t about digging in our heels—it’s about listening, learning, and being willing to change. From young Eli’s mischievous outhouse-tipping to Jesus’ transformative encounter with a Gentile woman, we see the power of humility and growth in action. As we approach Election Day, this message challenges us to seek not only this wisdom in ourselves but also in our leaders, choosing those who, like Jesus, are open to truth and the courage to change when needed.

Join us for a four-week journey into the world of Proverbs, where we’ll meet the “fool” – the one who ignores wisdom, stirs up drama, dodges responsibility, and misses out on the deeper things in life. But rather than just pointing fingers, we’ll dig into how we can avoid these pitfalls ourselves. Through storytelling and practical wisdom, we’ll uncover what it truly means to live with intention, kindness, and connection – embracing a life that reflects both our values and our faith in action.
