What this episode covers
Proverbs describes the characteristics of the three types of people we will encounter in life; wise, foolish, and evil people. It's important not that we attempt to categorize those we know, but instead recognize the traits as we try and solve a problem. Bill Clark unpacks these three types and reminds us to be wary that the problem might actually be us.
