What is wisdom and how do we get it? In this study, we'll search the Scriptures for answers to these questions and learn why wisdom makes all the difference in our trials.

DISCUSSION / REFLECTION QUESTIONS:

Reflecting on James 1:4, how do you understand the difference between being perfect and being complete in Christ? What does it look like when a person is complete in Christ?

How can we discern whether our decisions are based on godly wisdom or human reasoning?

According to Proverbs 2:6, "the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding." Discuss ways you have experienced the acquisition of wisdom through God's word, and how it has affected the way you think and live.

Reflecting on the role of the Holy Spirit as our 'internal umpire,' as discussed in the Sermon, how have you experienced the Holy Spirit's guidance in making decisions? Share any related scriptures that have helped you tune into the Holy Spirit's direction.

The Sermon emphasized the ongoing need to ask for wisdom and help from God. How does Matthew 7:7-8 encourage us in this practice, and what steps can we take to make asking for God's wisdom a regular part of our prayer life?

Discuss the statement from the Sermon, "Our trials should drive us to God to ask for patience and wisdom and strength and for hope." Does this resonate with your personal experiences?
