EP 130 Repost | How Do I Grow in Wisdom? Follow Your Heart? | Redeeming Truth

We’re revisiting an earlier conversation from Redeeming Truth that remains just as relevant today: Should Christians follow their heart when making important decisions? The Bible offers something far more trustworthy than our feelings: godly wisdom. In this archived episode, Redeemer pastors discuss how Christians can develop biblical wisdom and discernment for the decisions that shape everyday life—from dating and marriage to money, parenting, entertainment, and Christian liberty. You’ll discover: Why “follow your heart” can lead you in the wrong direction What the fear of the Lord actually means How to recognize biblical wisdom vs. worldly wisdom Why feelings and desires can distort our judgment How Scripture trains us to discern good from evil What wisdom from above looks like in everyday life You don't have to learn wisdom only through painful mistakes. God has given us His Word to guide how we live.
