Some people carry deep wisdom—but never speak it. Others have truth stirring in their hearts—but never stop long enough to hear it. In this episode of Wisdom & Wit, we explore Proverbs 20:5 and the art of drawing out counsel—from others, and from within. True wisdom often lies just below the surface. Discernment helps us bring it to light.

In This Episode:

• Why wisdom is often buried in quiet places
• How to ask better questions and listen more deeply
• What Proverbs teaches about drawing out godly insight

Takeaway:

God’s wisdom is often waiting in the deep end. Take time to draw it out.
