Well it is nice to be back in Canada for a few days, which makes it sound like international travel is just a regular part of my life, which it most certainly is not. Notwithstanding it is nice to be back. I was away last Sunday watching Heather’s niece (which makes her my niece too I suppose) get married in a very lovely resort near Cancun. The picture was taken by one of my sisters-in-law.
I will be away the next two Sundays on a work trip at what will undoubtedly also be a nice resort, this one near Puerto Vallarta. Not a difficulty part of a tough life by any stretch of the imagination!
This Sunday the Lectionary took me in the direction of wisdom and foolishness. I have preached about wisdom before but I don’t think I have ever done so from exactly this perspective. One of the first things that is necessary if you are talking about wisdom is to make a clear differentiation between wisdom and intelligence/cleverness/etc., once that is discussed then you can get to work on how wisdom and foolishness might look.
I enjoyed thinking about wisdom and foolishness [insert sophomoric joke here] and I hope that you will find some value in my reflections.
Knox Presbyterian What is wisdom? What is foolishness?
St. Mark’s Presbyterian What is wisdom? What is foolishness?
Warm blessings, until next time.
