Bad Advice | Nope to Foolishness
from Sermons | Local Church in Wabash, Indiana | Bachelor Creek · host Lee Coate
In this message, Lee Coate contrasts worldly wisdom, which is driven by envy, selfish ambition, and appearances, with godly wisdom, which produces purity, peace, mercy, and sincerity as described in James 3. He emphasizes that wisdom is not about age or intellect but about humbly applying God’s truth through prayerful asking and intentional pursuit in daily life. Ultimately, he challenges believers to embrace what may look like “the foolishness of God”—living counter-culturally in faith, humility, and obedience, trusting that God’s way leads to true life and flourishing.
