Ep 75 | The Wisdom of the Cross: What the World Gets Wrong

What if the very thing the world calls foolish… is actually the wisest thing that has ever happened?In this Easter week episode, we step into 1 Corinthians 1:17–2:16 to explore what the Apostle Paul calls “the word of the cross.” And what we discover is both sobering and transformative: the cross doesn’t just save—it completely redefines what wisdom actually is.From ancient rulers like Pontius Pilate and Caiaphas to modern thought leaders and cultural narratives, humanity has consistently tried to define wisdom apart from God. Yet at the center of history stands the cross—an event that looked like weakness and defeat, but is in fact the ultimate expression of God’s wisdom and power.In this episode, you’ll discover:Why the cross divides humanity into two responsesHow cultural and philosophical “wisdom” often falls shortWhy God chooses what the world rejectsWhat it means that Christ is our wisdomHow the Holy Spirit enables us to truly understand spiritual truthIf you’re a Christian professional navigating leadership, decision-making, and a culture full of competing voices, this episode will challenge you to rethink what wisdom really is—and where it’s truly found.The question isn’t: Are you wise by the world’s standards?The question is: Have you come to see the cross as the wisdom of God?Links:Song: "Christ Our Wisdom" You can order the devotionals at https://amzn.to/4h8zFe6 or https://wisdomcalling.orgFollow us on Instagram: @wisdomcallingnow
