First Appeal to Wisdom

It's crazy. It's painful to think how little we have left, how little is left of their childhood, how little time there is left, period. You can let that thought depress you…or clarify.

Welcome to Day 2800 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2800 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 114:1-8 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2800 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day two thousand eight hundred of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Wisdom-Trek: The Earth Trembles – When the Presence Moves In. Today is a milestone day! We have reached day two thousand eight hundred. That is a lot of trekking, and I am so grateful you are walking this path with me. We are celebrating this milestone by stepping into one of the most compact, high-energy psalms in the entire Bible. We are exploring Psalm One Hundred Fourteen, covering the entire hymn, verses one through eight, in the New Living Translation. In our previous trek through Psalm One Hundred Thirteen, we began the "Egyptian Hallel"—the series of psalms sung at the Passover. We saw the "Stooping God" who sits high above the nations but bends down low to lift the poor from the dust and the barren woman from her grief. That psalm set the theological stage: God is great because He is humble. Psalm One Hundred Fourteen moves from theology to Theophany. A "Theophany" is a visible manifestation of God. This psalm describes what happened when that "Stooping God" actually touched down on planet Earth to lead His people out of Egypt. It is a psalm of movement. In just eight verses, we see a nation moving out, a sea fleeing, a river turning back, mountains skipping like scared sheep, and the solid rock turning into a fountain. It describes the sheer, terrifying, joyful disruption that occurs when the Holy One invades the realm of chaos. In Jewish tradition, this psalm is sung right before the Passover meal. It recounts the moment Israel became God's peculiar treasure. So, let us imagine ourselves in the Upper Room, or perhaps standing on the shores of the Red Sea, as we witness the earth tremble at the presence of the Lord. The First Segment is: The Great Migration: Establishing the Sanctuary. Psalm One Hundred Fourteen: verses one through two. When Israel went out of Egypt, Jacob from a people of strange language,  Judah became God's sanctuary, Israel his dominion. The psalm begins with a historical flashback to the defining moment of the Old Testament: The Exodus. "When Israel went out of Egypt, Jacob from a people of strange language..." The mention of a "strange language" (or foreign tongue) emphasizes the alienation of Israel. They were strangers in a strange land. In the Ancient Israelite worldview, Egypt was not just a political oppressor; it was a spiritual "Iron Furnace." It was the domain of foreign gods—Ra, Osiris, Horus. Israel was living in a culture where the very words spoken were dedicated to idols. To leave Egypt was to leave the jurisdiction of these foreign elohim. But look at what happens the moment they step out: "Judah became God's sanctuary, Israel his dominion." This is a profound statement of Cosmic...

Every day, we're faced with financial decisions—some small, some life-shaping. We decide how to spend, save, give, borrow, invest, and provide for our families. But behind each of those choices lies a deeper question: where do we go to find wisdom?Many assume the Bible is a spiritual book meant only for spiritual matters, not for the realities of modern financial life. After all, Scripture was written thousands of years ago. There were no index funds, tax-advantaged accounts, or credit cards in ancient Israel. So how could it possibly speak to retirement planning, debt, generosity, or contentment today?Yet what Scripture offers isn't a financial playbook—it's something better: timeless wisdom rooted in the character of God.Timeless Wisdom, Not Financial FormulasBiblical wisdom isn't about giving us modern strategies or formulas. It's about helping us understand who God is, who we are, and what we were made for. Until we know the Author, we won't trust His instruction. And without trusting His instruction, we won't build our lives—financially or otherwise—on His Word.The primary purpose of Scripture isn't merely to tell us what to do. It's to reveal who we belong to. It introduces us to the God who provides, who owns all things, who defines true success, and who calls us to steward not just money, but all of life.Once that foundation is laid, Scripture certainly does speak to how we live. The apostle Paul writes:“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable… that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:16–17).Financial decisions are included in those “good works.” The Bible isn't irrelevant to a modern economy—it's indispensable.Biblical Principles for Modern Money DecisionsThe questions people wrestle with today aren't new. Scripture addresses the very issues many of us face:Diversification: “Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land” (Ecclesiastes 11:2).Debt and co-signing: “Be not one of those who give pledges” (Proverbs 22:26).Living below your means: “Precious treasure and oil are in a wise man's dwelling, but a foolish man devours it” (Proverbs 21:20).Planning ahead: “The prudent sees danger and hides himself” (Proverbs 27:12).Generosity: “You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way” (2 Corinthians 9:11).Seeking wisdom: “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God” (James 1:5).These aren't technical instructions about financial products. They are heart-level principles that guide every generation, in every economy.Financial Wisdom Is RelationalBiblical wisdom is not merely practical—it's relational. Scripture doesn't just tell us what to do; it shows us why God is trustworthy.It reveals a Father who “owns the cattle on a thousand hills” (Psalm 50:10), who feeds the birds of the air (Matthew 6:26), who gives good gifts to His children (James 1:17), and who never abandons those who walk by faith (Hebrews 13:5).Much of our financial anxiety isn't ultimately about money—it's about trust. And trust doesn't come from spreadsheets or strategies. It comes from knowing the God who inspired Scripture.When we know Him, financial obedience becomes freedom rather than drudgery. Living below our means becomes contentment. Avoiding debt becomes a matter of wisdom rather than fear. Giving becomes a joyful response to grace. Planning becomes stewardship instead of self-reliance.Ancient Words, Timely GuidanceScripture is ancient, but it is not outdated. Technology changes. Markets change. Financial products change. But the human heart does not.Because the heart hasn't changed, God's Word still speaks. It equips us for every season of life, every financial decision, and every act of stewardship.The Bible never treats money as evil, but it refuses to let it become a savior. It presents money as a tool—good when stewarded wisely, dangerous when worshiped, and temporary, no matter how well invested.That's why the goal of biblical financial wisdom isn't accumulation—it's transformation.Becoming Faithful StewardsUltimately, Scripture doesn't just shape what we do with money; it shapes who we become. It forms us into people who trust God, steward His resources, and live with eternal purpose.That's the heart behind Our Ultimate Treasure: A 21-Day Journey to Faithful Stewardship. The devotional walks through how Scripture reshapes our view of money by helping us see God as Owner, Provider, and our ultimate treasure—so finances fall into their proper place.If you'd like to take that journey, you can get your copy—or order in bulk for your church or small group—at FaithFi.com/Shop.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I want to buy savings bonds for my grandson's first birthday, but my bank and credit union don't handle them.

In this Jewish Inspiration Podcast episode (Day 129), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues the Gate of Flattery (Chanufa) from Orchos Tzaddikim, focusing on the third major aspect: praising or commending the wicked (reshayim) in their presence or before others—even indirectly.Key teachings:Praising the wicked — Saying “he's a good person,” “he's pleasant,” or highlighting minor good deeds—even without justifying their evil—is forbidden. It risks elevating them undeservedly and creating stumbling blocks.Consequences — The wicked feel validated (“I'm really a good guy”), double down on evil, and become more entrenched. Others may honor them, envy their “success,” imitate them, or lose respect for true tzaddikim (righteous people).Honoring tzaddikim — When the righteous are exalted, people heed their counsel, envy their good deeds, and grow in Torah/yiras shamayim (fear of heaven). This aligns with Hashem's intent in creation.Practical warning — Avoid praising the wicked unless also mentioning their evil (to maintain balance and truth). Even neutral/positive comments can lead to misplaced honor and spiritual damage.Broader impact — Flattery of resha'im desecrates Torah/divine service. The soul yearns for closeness to Hashem—praising evil distances us from that.The rabbi ties this to current events (e.g., evil regimes collapsing) and emphasizes aligning with Hashem's values: honor the righteous, distance from flattery, and bring God-consciousness through truthful speech and actions._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on January 5, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 18, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

For years, I asked God for wisdom, responsibility, integrity........   I prayed for years, 10 to be exact.    I would go through things, get my ass beat by life, challenged at every turn, building businesses, losing money, and getting ground up in the wood chipper of life.    I remember one time I had to stroke a check for $750K due to an investment that went bad.  I wanted integrity, and I returned the money lost and took one on top of it.    Patience requires you to wait.  If you want patience, God is going to make you wait.    Wisdom.    I had to go through all of these things to get the experience to learn the lessons necessary to have the wisdom I was wanting.    Everything is a test and tests are not passed until you get the lessons necessary to get more of what you want.    Stay the course.   Enjoy the journey.    About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

The Value of Wisdom

It starts off so exciting. You're thrust into a totally new situation—you have a kid. And then so much happens and keeps happening. But then what happens?

Jeff Durbin -Romans 5:8- We've been in God's Book of Divine Wisdom for some time. It has been such a blessing and a transformative experience for so many of us. Today, my heart's desire is to focus our minds on the glory and beauty of the Good News of God. A love of God's Wisdom can only come from a heart that has been changed and a relationship of peace with God. That can only come in one way: the Gospel. May God never let our hearts stray from a passion for the Good News. The Good News that God loves sinners like us. The Good News that He has reconciled us to Himself. The Good News of Eternal Life. The Good News that we now have peace. Eternal peace with the God Who is Love. Sola Deo Gloria!

Welcome to Day 2799 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2799 – The Day the Pupil Stumped the Professors – Luke 3:1-38 Putnam Church Message – 01/11/2026 Luke's Account of the Good News - “The Day the Pupil Stumped the Professors.”    Last week was the first week of 2026. We explored the third and final story of Jesus's childhood. We will explore “The Day the Pupil Stumped the Professors.”  Today, we will investigate a prophet who was unmatched in all history, the forerunner of Jesus Christ, in a message titled “The Greatest Mortal Who Ever Died.” Our Core verses for this week are Luke 3:1-38, found on page 1593 of your Pew Bibles. Since this is a long passage and there is a lot to cover, I will include many of the verses during the message.  Opening Prayer Gracious and holy God, we come before You today not to be entertained, not to be affirmed by the world, but to be shaped by Your truth. You are the God who speaks in the wilderness, who calls Your servants when the times are dark, and who prepares hearts for the coming of Christ. As we open Your Word, strip away our need for approval, our fear of standing apart, and our temptation to measure faithfulness by success. Give us ears to hear, hearts willing to repent, and courage to live differently for Your glory. Prepare us, O Lord, as John prepared the way— that Christ may be clearly seen among us today. We ask this in the name of Jesus, the Lamb of God and Savior of the world. Amen. Introduction: When God's Best Doesn't Look Like Success We live in a culture that worships success. Success is measured in numbers—attendance, followers, influence, platforms, budgets, and visibility. We admire what is polished, efficient, impressive, and scalable. If something grows quickly and looks professional, we assume God must be blessing it. And if it struggles, suffers, or fails—well, we quietly wonder what went wrong. That mindset has seeped into the church. We speak of ministries being relevant, which often means marketable. We talk about impact in terms of reach. We measure faithfulness by results. And we subtly assume that if God is truly at work, it will look powerful, admired, and upwardly mobile. Then Luke introduces us to John the Baptizer. John doesn't fit any of our categories. He doesn't go where the people are; he goes where they aren't. He doesn't dress to attract; he dresses to repel. He doesn't soften his message; he sharpens it. He doesn't protect his influence; he surrenders it. And he doesn't end his life honored—he ends it executed. And yet Jesus will later say of him: “I tell you, of all who have ever lived, none is greater than John.” (Luke 7:28, NLT) That's a shocking statement. Not Moses. / Not David. / Not Elijah. / Not Isaiah. The greatest mortal who ever lived—and ever died—was a wilderness prophet who never performed a miracle, never held office, never wrote a book, never founded a movement, and never lived to see the results of his ministry. Luke chapter 3 forces us to confront a hard truth: God defines greatness very differently from the way we do. Main...

We provide actionable caregiving strategies to help you move from frustration to empathy by "detecting" the life stories behind the diagnosis.

Have you ever been wounded by people of God, people in the church? Have you experienced church hurt and you're wondering if you should go back? Many people suffer from the place that they were meant to get healing. The people that they should be able to rely on and trust for support turned around and ended up hurting them. If you've ever experienced, experienced hurt from the church, this podcast is for you. Award-winning author, life coach, and empowerment speaker Amy Joob delves into this issue of church hurt, in which wounded people often walk away from the very community meant to offer healing and support, struggling to find hope and trust again. Amy Joob shares her own story of church hurt, and offers practical steps for pursuing healing, forgiveness, and healthy community. We discuss how to process difficult emotions like anger, shame, and betrayal, how to navigate these experiences as a family, and why it's worth seeking out true connection even after deep disappointment. Whether you're currently wrestling with church hurt or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers compassion, encouragement, and resources for taking those first steps toward restoration. Join us as we discover how to move from pain to purpose within the body of Christ. What You'll Discover: Amy Joob shares her family's deeply moving story of walking through grief and betrayal, highlighting the confusion and isolation that often accompany church hurt. Learn practical steps for seeking resolution and finding forgiveness, even when leaders falter in their responsibilities. Real-life advice on how to separate the imperfect actions of people from the true character of Jesus – and why holding onto faith matters. Wisdom for supporting your family through church-related wounds, including why kids and teenagers may respond differently and how to help them process. Guidance on knowing when it's time to look for a new church, and how to step back into community engagement without carrying bitterness forward. Encouragement for anyone facing isolation after leaving a church, with actionable tips on reconnecting and trusting again. Key Takeaways: "Don't quit. Give yourself permission to heal, but don't give up on the body of Christ." "Forgiveness is a process. Say it out loud, pray blessings over those who hurt you, and trust God with your healing." Create stability and routines for your family during difficult times – consistency can be a lifeline. Connect with Amy Joob: Looking for coaching, grief resources, or support?

The owl is wisdom. The bull is nature and carnality. The owl requires sacrifices of your pleasure and worry, to obtain wisdom; the bull requires sacrifices of innocence and responsibility to obtain pleasure. Ultimately the bull and its horns correspond to the nature of time, and Saturn, because Saturn plants in us the seeds of our own destruction. That's why he eats his own children. If you interpret it literally, then as some have, they sacrifice children on the altar to that deity. Physical children, not metaphoric ones. Bulls represent the body of the world soul and the invidiuah soul. Owls represent the human ability to rise above the world. Bulls are the feet and owls are the head. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Ever feel like your brain won't stick to one task, your to-do list breeds at night, and every decision carries the weight of a parenting manual? Same. Jess sits down to unpack the first year of motherhood with candor and humor: why trusting your intuition beats crowdsourced panic, how a “second baby mindset” lowers stress on the very first kid, and the simple truth that rest isn't a reward—it's strategy.We walk through seven real-life lessons that actually change the day-to-day: combo feeding to relieve pressure, splitting night shifts to protect sanity, and asking for help without apology. Jess gets honest about identity too—the part no one can do for you. There's no going back to who you were before, and that can feel like loss until you realize it's an opening. With therapy, deconditioning old beliefs about time and worth, and a tighter circle, the new version starts to feel like home. That shift touches everything from how you work to how you show up for joy, like stopping to feel snow on your face instead of racing to the car.Community is the throughline. The village probably won't arrive fully formed; you'll build it from neighbors, online groups, library programs, and one friend who answers at 2 a.m. That's why we're reopening the Selfish Sisterhood—connection first, less calendar clutter, deeper support. And when sleep wobbles or routines fall apart, we lean on a grounding mantra: it's just a phase. It will pass. Meanwhile, choose presence where you can and laugh at the yogurt on the floor before you wipe it up.If this resonates, hit play and share it with a friend who could use a softer, sturdier way to parent.

1 Better is a dry morsel with quietness, than a house full of feasting with strife. 2 A servant who deals wisely will rule over a son who causes shame, and shall have a part in the inheritance among the brothers. 3 The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold, but Yahweh tests the hearts. 4 An evildoer heeds wicked lips. A liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue. 5 Whoever mocks the poor reproaches his Maker. He who is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished. 6 Children's children are the crown of old men; the glory of children is their parents. 7 Excellent speech isn't fitting for a fool, much less do lying lips fit a prince. 8 A bribe is a precious stone in the eyes of him who gives it; wherever he turns, he prospers. 9 He who covers an offense promotes love; but he who repeats a matter separates best friends. 10 A rebuke enters deeper into one who has understanding than a hundred lashes into a fool. 11 An evil man seeks only rebellion; therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him. 12 Let a bear robbed of her cubs meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly. 13 Whoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. 14 The beginning of strife is like breaching a dam, therefore stop contention before quarreling breaks out. 15 He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the righteous, both of them alike are an abomination to Yahweh. 16 Why is there money in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, since he has no understanding? 17 A friend loves at all times; and a brother is born for adversity. 18 A man void of understanding strikes hands, and becomes collateral in the presence of his neighbor. 19 He who loves disobedience loves strife. One who builds a high gate seeks destruction. 20 One who has a perverse heart doesn't find prosperity, and one who has a deceitful tongue falls into trouble. 21 He who becomes the father of a fool grieves. The father of a fool has no joy. 22 A cheerful heart makes good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. 23 A wicked man receives a bribe in secret, to pervert the ways of justice. 24 Wisdom is before the face of one who has understanding, but the eyes of a fool wander to the ends of the earth. 25 A foolish son brings grief to his father, and bitterness to her who bore him. 26 Also to punish the righteous is not good, nor to flog officials for their integrity. 27 He who spares his words has knowledge. He who is even tempered is a man of understanding. 28 Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is counted wise. When he shuts his lips, he is thought to be discerning.

Welcome to Day 2798 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2798 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 113:1-9 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2798 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day two thousand seven hundred ninety-eight of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title of today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Hallel Begins – The High God Who Stoops Low Today, we cross a significant threshold in our journey through the Psalter. We are stepping into Psalm One Hundred Thirteen, covering the entire hymn, verses one through nine, in the New Living Translation. To understand the shift we are making today, we need to look back at the trail we have just hiked. For the last two days, we have been trekking through Psalm One Hundred Eleven and Psalm One Hundred Twelve. Those two psalms were a matched pair—twin "acrostic" poems that functioned like a classroom. They taught us the "A to Z" of God's character and the "A to Z" of the godly person's character. They were wisdom psalms, designed to be studied, pondered, and memorized in the quiet of the study hall. But today, the bell rings, and the class is dismissed. We are moving from the study hall to the Festival. Psalm One Hundred Thirteen marks the beginning of a special collection known as the "Egyptian Hallel" (Psalms One Hundred Thirteen through One Hundred Eighteen). These six psalms were, and still are, the liturgical soundtrack of the Passover Seder. They celebrate God's deliverance of Israel from Egypt. In Jewish tradition, Psalms One Hundred Thirteen and One Hundred Fourteen are sung before the Passover meal, and Psalms One Hundred Fifteen through One Hundred Eighteen are sung after the meal. This means that on the night Jesus was betrayed, just before He went to the Garden of Gethsemane, He likely sang these very words with His disciples. So, as we read this psalm, we are not just reading poetry; we are stepping into the Upper Room. We are hearing the song that fortified the Messiah for the cross. The theme of this psalm is a magnificent paradox. It presents Yahweh as the God who is Infinitely High—seated above the nations and the heavens—yet who insists on stooping Infinitely Low to lift the poor from the dust and the barren woman from her grief. It is the theology of the Great Descent. So, let us lift our voices with the choir of history and begin the Hallel. The first segment is: The Call to the Servants: A Praise Without Borders. Psalm One Hundred Thirteen: verses one through three. Praise the Lord! Yes, give praise, O servants of the Lord. Praise the name of the Lord!  Blessed be the name of the Lord now and forever.  Everywhere—from east to west— praise the name of the Lord. The psalm opens with the signature shout of the Hallel: "Hallelujah!" ("Praise the Lord!"). But notice...

From ancient times to modern markets, gold and silver have captured people's attention—especially during seasons of uncertainty. It's one reason more believers are asking whether precious metals belong in their investment portfolios. The question isn't simply financial; it's also about stewardship. Where do metals fit—and where don't they—when we're seeking to make wise, faithful decisions with what God has entrusted to us?A Long History as a Store of ValuePrecious metals are among the oldest forms of money in human history. For thousands of years, gold and silver have served as a store of value. Even today, in an economy dominated by fiat currencies, they still carry an aura of stability and permanence.There's a practical reason for that: governments can print more dollars, but they can't print more gold or silver. As a result, investors often turn to metals during periods of inflation, geopolitical tensions, or financial instability. They're commonly viewed as a hedge—an asset that may preserve purchasing power when confidence in broader systems begins to waver.That perception holds some truth. But it's also important to separate reality from myth. Precious metals are not magic assets, and they don't function like traditional growth investments.How Precious Metals Differ from Traditional InvestmentsThey Don't Produce IncomeStocks may pay dividends, bonds generate interest, and real estate can produce rental income. Precious metals, by contrast, do not produce income. They simply exist as assets whose value rises or falls over time.That doesn't mean they can't appreciate. But it does mean their return profile is fundamentally different from owning productive assets. Gold sits still; businesses build.Prices Can Be VolatileMetals are often described as “safe,” yet their market prices can swing sharply. There have been extended seasons when gold and silver prices barely moved—or declined—reminding investors that stability and growth are not the same thing.Costs MatterOwning physical metals involves more than just the purchase price. Coins and bars often carry premiums, and they require storage, insurance, and security considerations.For those who prefer not to handle physical metals, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and similar vehicles offer another path. These track the price of gold or silver without the logistical challenges of storing them, making them a practical option for many investors.Allocation Is KeyFinancial professionals who favor precious metals typically recommend keeping them as a small portion of a diversified portfolio—often around 5%, and rarely more than 10%. When metals dominate a portfolio, they can crowd out assets better suited for long-term growth.What Scripture Says About Wealth and SecurityThe Bible references gold and silver frequently—not only as commodities, but also as symbols of value, beauty, craftsmanship, and worship. Yet Scripture consistently warns against placing our trust in them.Paul writes, “As for the rich in this present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God” (1 Timothy 6:17).The issue isn't money itself; it's misplaced hope. Gold cannot redeem us, rescue us, or ultimately secure our future. Only the Lord can do that.Proverbs echoes this truth: “The wealth of the rich is their fortified city; they imagine it a wall too high to scale” (Proverbs 18:11). The key word is imagine. Wealth—even in solid forms like precious metals—can create an illusion of safety.That's especially important to remember because metals often attract attention during periods of fear. But fear is not a reliable investment strategy. Wisdom is. Fear rushes; wisdom moves slowly, with patience and prayer.Three Principles for Faithful Investors1. Metals Are a Tool, Not a TreasurePrecious metals don't need to be spiritualized or demonized. They're simply one part of God's created resources—useful when held with open hands and proper perspective.2. They Should Complement, Not Replace, DiversificationSome investors feel tempted to go all-in on gold during uncertain times. But Scripture doesn't call us to make decisions rooted in fear. Metals may play a role, but they shouldn't replace a well-diversified plan built for long-term growth and stability.3. Every Financial Decision Is Ultimately SpiritualWhether investing in index funds, bonds, real estate, or bullion, the deeper question remains: Lord, how can I honor You with what You've entrusted to me?If precious metals help reduce risk, preserve purchasing power, or support generosity over time, they may serve a wise purpose. But if they fuel anxiety or foster a bunker mentality, they can quietly pull our hearts off course.Precious metals may help preserve purchasing power, but they don't produce income, guarantee returns, or provide ultimate security. They are a hedge—not a haven.Our true security isn't found in vaults, markets, or accounts. It's found in Christ alone. And when that truth anchors our hearts, we're free to make financial decisions with wisdom, patience, and peace.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My husband and I are 79, debt-free, and don't have life insurance. I have $5,000 I'd like to grow to help cover burial expenses, plus small amounts in savings and a CD. We live on about $1,500 a month. How should I handle that $5,000?I have a stock that's down over 40%, rated poorly, and it makes up a large part of my portfolio. I want to sell it, but I don't know where to move the funds. What would be a better option?I used a 12-month same-as-cash plan to remodel my bathroom. I can pay it off on time, but are there any hidden risks with these offers? Also, I checked my credit at AnnualCreditReport.com and noticed it doesn't provide a credit score. What's the difference between a credit report and a credit score?I have a whole life insurance policy I bought years ago, and may not need anymore. If I cash it out, I'm concerned about taxes and how it could affect things like Medicare.

In this Jewish Inspiration Podcast episode (Day 127), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe begins the Gate of Flattery (Sha'ar HaChanufa) from Orchos Tzaddikim, warning that flattery is a grave sin—often more dangerous than outright falsehood—because it distorts truth for personal gain. The chapter divides flattery into nine categories, with the rabbi focusing on the first and its severe consequences.Key teachings:First category of flattery — Praising or speaking smoothly to a known rasha (wicked person), ramai (deceiver), or thief—saying “you did nothing wrong” or “you're fine” when they are guilty.Multiple transgressions —Failure to rebuke (lo tochiah) when obligated—strengthens evildoers' hands.Not being zealous for truth—punishment for abandoning emes. Aiding sin—by reassuring them, prevents teshuva (repentance).Desecration of God's Name (chillul Hashem) if public—makes sin appear acceptable.Flattery = smooth tongue, not praise — It's saying one thing while thinking another (echad b'peh v'echad b'lev)—justifying evil, currying favor, or avoiding confrontation.Severe punishment — Flatterers cannot dwell in God's presence (one of four groups barred: liars, slanderers, flatterers, etc.). Talmud (Sotah) lists them among those excluded from Shechinah.Biblical & Talmudic sources — “Do not tremble before any man” (Deuteronomy); Agrippa story—flattering him as “our brother” led to destruction; “you shall not put a foreigner over you” caused tears and divine displeasure.Practical application — Never justify wickedness—even privately. Rebuke gently when possible; stay silent if they won't listen. Never praise evil to gain benefit. Truth must remain intact.The rabbi stresses: flattery is “kissing up” to wrongdoers—distorts reality, blocks teshuva, and desecrates God's Name. Live with uncompromising truth—even when uncomfortable._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on January 5, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 16, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

For part 9 of 12 on “What is the Nicene Creed?” we unpack these lines:"We believe in the Holy Spirit,The Lord, the Giver of Life,Who proceeds from the Father and the Son,With the Father and the Son S/He is worshipped and glorified;S/He has spoken through the Prophets."The Holy Spirit is probably God's most misunderstood person of the Trinity ... and yet, the one who is our Advocate, guide, Wisdom, and companion. So we spend a little time understanding where She fits in the big picture of Christianity, how we might discern between what is anxiety and the voice of God within us, and what exactly is the "Filioque" and the Great Schism debate about. +++Like what you hear?

This episode analyzes Solomon's request for wisdom by identifying the conditions that shaped both the prayer and its outcome. Drawing from Proverbs, 1 Kings, Ecclesiastes, and James, the teaching frames wisdom as skill for leadership, efficiency, and stewardship rather than abstract spirituality. Attention is given to prayer as a response to divine prompting, the role of preparation and humility, and the relationship between focus, effectiveness, and service. The episode concludes by positioning wisdom as something already provided by God, activated through asking, and essential for navigating transitions, responsibility, and meaningful work. New podcast episodes are available every Monday wherever you listen to podcasts.

Most high performers think a “good” performance review is a win, until nothing changes afterward. If you're ready to convert performance into promotability and build a low-friction, high-yield career asset, explore Dr. Grace's mentorship program here: https://masteryinsights.com/mentorship-pc What is Proprioceptive Deficit in Organizations? Organizational proprioception is a framework that describes how leadership perceives your position relative to the market and mission, without needing to constantly monitor you. Proprioceptive deficit occurs when a high performer executes with excellence but remains unaware of how their actions impact adjacent departments, revenue streams, or enterprise-level outcomes. This deficit creates friction, and the leadership team perceives you as a disconnected limb rather than an integrated asset. Correcting proprioceptive deficit requires understanding your connection to the P&L statement and building cross-functional awareness that signals strategic alignment to decision-makers. Key Concepts: Performance vs. Promotability: The blind spot where mastery in your current role becomes a containment strategy rather than a ladder, because your tactical excellence creates a production gap the company cannot afford to lose. Return on Management (ROM): The hidden calculation leaders use: total value created divided by management energy consumed. High output with high friction equals low ROM—and low advancement potential. Narrative Ownership vs. Abdication: The strategic choice between dictating the interpretation of your contributions throughout the year or allowing leaders to default to recency bias and simplistic labels during your review. The Interpretation Layer: The mechanism of controlling not just what you achieved, but what that achievement meant at the market and enterprise level. Have you ever felt 'contained' by your own excellence? Tell me about the moment you realized your hard work wasn't the same thing as being promotable.   Show notes and free resources: https://CareerRevisionist.com/episode230 Do you want to move up in executive leadership?

What if you were wiser with relationships? James 3:13-18 13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.  14 But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.  15 Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. 16 For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. 17 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. 18 Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness. James 4:1-2 What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don't they come from your desires that battle within you? 2 You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God.    The 5 wisdom literature books of the Bible: Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs Job 2:13 Then they sat on the ground with him for seven days and seven nights. No one said a word to him, because they saw how great his suffering was. Job 13:5  If only you would be altogether silent! For you, that would be wisdom.   Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, 2 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. 3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither—whatever they do prospers.     Proverbs 13:20 Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm.   Ecclesiastes 4 Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: 10 If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.   11 Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? 12 Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.   13 Better a poor but wise youth than an old but foolish king who no longer knows how to heed a warning.    Song of Songs 2:7 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.     Proverbs 21:19 Better to live in a desert than with a quarrelsome and nagging wife.   Wisdom for relationships includes peace, priorities, and patience.      What would the wiser you do? 

Do you get better at listening to the Holy Spirit as you get older?  I do!!  What I once didn't even notice is now as plain as day.  Does that mean I'm getting more wisdom?  I hope so!!  Today, you'll hear me talk about a recent nudge I had to reach out to someone.  Did it make a difference?  GOD made a difference!  Reach Out to Me:Website: www.dontignorethenudge.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/dontignorethenudgeIG: @dontignorethenudgepodcastPrivate FB group to WATCH interviews: www.dontignorethenudge.com/facebook__________________________________________________________________________________________Business/Personal Coaching with Cori:www.corifreeman.com(951) 923-2674
