New Age spirituality frequently teaches that human beings are "co-creators" with God or that God needs our experiences in order to learn and grow. Scripture teaches the opposite. God possesses everything He needs within Himself. He is eternal, sovereign, independent, and completely self-sufficient. In Week 50 of New Age to Christ, Doreen Virtue explains how this attribute of God frees Christians from the exhausting burden of trying to control everything, rescue everyone, or earn God's favor through good works. Because God lacks nothing, His grace, wisdom, love, and strength will never be exhausted. We obey God because we love Him and have been saved through faith in Jesus Christ, not because God needs something from us. Every believer can lay down the burden of self-reliance and rest in the complete sufficiency of God. For more from Doreen please visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/doreen-virtue/

Headlines from around the country are often filled with stories revealing fraud and scandal. Billions of dollars have been stolen from taxpayers by those establishing fraudulent businesses or deceptive billing schemes. People have succumbed to enticing bribes and selling state secrets. Also troubling is what is happening in politics in virtually every election cycle. There are politicians dropping out of races after the public becomes aware of illicit relationships or fraudulent dealings to which they have been engaged. The public has often been left feeling betrayed by such individuals who in a clandestine way seek to take advantage of others. Oh, how we long to have people of integrity! This is why it is important that we uplift and showcase the role models of men and women of integrity. Those who displayed character qualities that exhibited their Christian faith and made a difference for this nation. It took courage, obedience, loyalty, truthfulness, boldness and wisdom. We must remember those who made a difference in history and the character qualities they exhibited. And it rests upon us today to pass these stories on to the next generation. Returning to Crosstalk to do just that through her book set called, Profiles of Integrity, was Marilyn Boyer. Marilyn is a descendant of a Revolutionary War soldier and daughter of a World War II veteran. She is deeply patriotic and passionate about our Christian history. As the wife of an Air Force veteran, mother, home educator of fourteen children and grandmother of twenty-eight, Marilyn's dedication to family and country is unparalleled. Enjoy this Crosstalk!

Proverbs 25 teaches that biblical wisdom is displayed in the ordinary relationships and decisions of life. The wise person avoids self-promotion, speaks graciously at the right time, practices patience, treats enemies with kindness, remains faithful, and exercises self-control. In this episode of Reading the Bible Daily with Dave, Dave Jenkins explains how biblical wisdom governs our words, relationships, responses, and personal discipline. He also considers how Proverbs 25 points us to Jesus Christ, who perfectly demonstrated humility, grace, compassion, faithfulness, and self-control. Through faith in Christ, our sins are forgiven, our hearts are changed, and the Holy Spirit increasingly shapes us into people who reflect the wisdom and character of God.

When Wisdom Gets Booed The central truth of this message is that wisdom is not merely recognized by what a person knows, but by how they respond to God's truth. Proverbs continually contrasts the wise and the fool. The wise fear the Lord, welcome His instruction, and gladly submit to His ways. The fool, however, "despises" wisdom—pictured by the Hebrew word as someone who "boos" or gives God's truth a thumbs down in disapproval. The message explains that many people reject God's wisdom, sometimes openly and sometimes quietly in their hearts. Like a crowd booing an official's call, they resist God's authority because they prefer their own way. This rejection is not an intellectual problem but a spiritual one. The issue is not a lack of information but a lack of surrender. Proverbs also teaches that believers must be careful not to become controlled by foolish people. We are called to speak truth with love, but we must remember that we cannot change a fool's heart—only God can. Arguments, pressure, or human effort cannot remove the darkness within. Only the new birth through Jesus Christ can transform a heart from folly to wisdom. The message encourages believers to remain shepherded by Christ rather than manipulated by the reactions of others. God's understanding becomes "a wellspring of life" for those who receive it, and every step of obedient faith leads to greater spiritual insight. Therefore, we are urged to "buy the truth and do not sell it," pursuing God's wisdom at any cost and then generously sharing it with others. Finally, the message points ahead to the beautiful connection between Psalm 37 and Proverbs 24, showing how David's testimony in Psalm 37 is expa
