Wisdom | Episode 20 | The Right Kind of Subtlety

from Duane Sheriff Ministries - Messages · host Duane Sheriff

Is subtlety evil—or is it actually wisdom when used the right way? Many of us view subtlety as the enemy's crafty, deceptive tactic. After all, Genesis 3:1 says the serpent was the most subtle of all creatures.In Episode 20 of "Wisdom," Duane Sheriff concludes the series by tackling what he calls the hardest subject in wisdom's house—subtlety. Scripture reveals there is both a negative form, seen in Satan's deception, and a positive form rooted in godly wisdom.Drawing from 1 Corinthians 9, Matthew 10:16, and the lives of Paul and David, this episode shows how godly subtlety is not hypocrisy or compromise, but a strategic, love-driven approach to reaching others and avoiding unnecessary conflict. Like a chameleon, it adapts without losing truth—motivated not by self-preservation, but by the gospel.Discover how to discern the difference between manipulation and wisdom, and learn how subtlety, rightly applied, can help you navigate complex situations, avoid danger, and walk in the fullness of God’s purpose.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/landing/wisdom/

Women with Dyslexia Podcast: Living the Gospel with Power Hope B This podcast is designed for women with dyslexia who believe that God can do something new. The Apostle Paul says that we are transformed by renewing our minds to do what pleases the LORD, which is His will. When our minds are renewed (neuroscientists call this neuroplasticity), we are transformed. This podcast will contain short biblical messages designed to replace our old negative thinking with the truth found in God’s word. It is devoted to encouraging and inspiring adult women with dyslexia by listening to biblical truths that will uplift and challenge them to find a place for dyslexia in their lives and let Christ take center stage of their lives. To benefit from these short yet powerful messages, I recommend making these podcasts part of your morning and evening time with the Lord. Thank you for joining me.
