What happens when a man gets so comfortable in his own opinion that he becomes unteachable? In this message, we unpack the trap of being "wise in your own eyes" and rejecting correction. Proverbs reveals how ego makes us hate discipline, how self-reliance blinds us to sound advice, and how reckless choices damage our families and relationships. True strength isn't about having all the answers—it’s having the humility to drop the ego, accept instruction, and build a life on Christ-centered wisdom.

Most people, and certainly most men, don't wreck their lives in a single, catastrophic moment—they drift there. We live in a world flooded with endless options, quick-fix hacks, and self-help advice, yet so many of us are trapped in an overconfident, indecisive autopilot. In this sermon, we kick off a new series in the book of Proverbs to unpack what true wisdom actually looks like. We pull back the curtain on why real decisions are painfully costly, why even the wisest leaders in history ultimately failed, and how the "fear of the Lord" isn't a restrictive set of rules, but the foundational anchor our lives desperately need.

Forget passive Christianity; Jesus is training us for battle against a real, persistent enemy who wants nothing more than to wreck your life, family, and purpose. Spiritual warfare isn't about Hollywood-style demon hunting—it’s hand-to-hand combat in the daily grind. It’s choosing discipline over indulgence, standing firm against tailored temptations, and keeping your eyes fixed on Jesus.
