    Season 2. Ep. 2 - What Is Wisdom? Biblical Insight from Proverbs and Psalms

    In this week’s episode of By the River, pastors Cliff and Scott sit down to talk about biblical wisdom—what it is, where it starts, and how we can actually live it out. Drawing from the deep wells of Proverbs and Psalms, this conversation explores the difference between worldly knowledge and godly wisdom, why the fear of the Lord is the beginning of understanding, and how to navigate life with spiritual discernment. Whether you're facing tough decisions, trying to grow in faith, or just want to understand Scripture more clearly, this episode will help you walk in wisdom that lasts. Key Scriptures include Proverbs 1:7 (“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge”), Psalm 111:10 (“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom”), Proverbs 3:5-6 (“Trust in the Lord with all your heart…”), and Psalm 1 (“Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked…”). In this episode, we explore what biblical wisdom really is and how it’s different from intelligence, how Proverbs and Psalms work together to form a life of wisdom, real-life examples of trusting God instead of leaning on our own understanding, and the power of humility, listening, and spiritual obedience.
