Week 8: Where is Wisdom?

Week 8: Where is Wisdom?


 
This sermon on Job 28 contrasts humanity’s incredible technological and intellectual achievements with its complete inability to discover true wisdom apart from God. The preacher argues that wisdom is not merely information, answers, or life principles, but the very presence of God Himself — “the fear of the Lord is wisdom” — and that suffering often strips away the “landmarks” we rely on so we learn to cling to Christ alone.

Applying this to everyday life and parenting, the sermon warns against searching for meaning, guidance, and security in technology, self-help, or human ingenuity, urging believers instead to cultivate a genuine relationship with Jesus, because what ultimately shapes a person and a family is not knowledge about God, but dependence on Him.
