In this episode of 'Holy Smokes, Bro,' hosts Matt and Randy Kutz explore the interplay between faith and intellect in church leadership and life. They discuss how intellect can either enhance or undermine one's credibility when understanding and living the principles of the Bible. Through their role as pastors and educators, they emphasize the importance of developing spiritual intelligence through listening, asking questions, and spending time with God. The conversation includes reflections on how Jesus demonstrated wisdom, not through formal education but through his relationship with the Father. Drawing from scripture and their own experiences, Matt and Randy highlight that real wisdom comes from spiritual connection rather than mere academic achievement.
