Hey there BCU Family!
Typically, you have the option of listening to our podcast, reading the notes or both. For this post, because of the conversational format, please tune into the podcast recording and refer to the written post for the highlights. We pray the post blesses and encourages you. If so, please thumbs up AND leave a comment! Thank you and enjoy the post!
Podcast highlights:
- Previously, we’ve talked about wisdom and foolishness. Foolishness is a behavior that does not come from, nor line up with the Word of God (See James 3:13-16).
- While choosing to walk in foolishness seems “logical” and may “work” initially, anything we do outside of God’s Word will eventually and always have a high price tag. And the cost of living foolishly will be paid--either in this life, and without repentance and salvation, in the life to come.
- Foolishness is a type of unbelief and unbelievers do not inherit the Kingdom of God (See Revelation 21:8).
- We’ve previously examined three types of foolish people: the Scorning fool, the, Simple fool, and the “Talkative” fool.
- Today, we’ll look at six additional types of foolish people and behaviors they practice.
Listen BCU Fam, this breakdown of these foolish behaviors is so enlightening to me! I confess, I recognize some of this unwise conduct we’ve been talking about in some past decisions I’ve made. EEK! But I do thank God for His mercy as He patiently waited for me to find my way back to the wisdom of His Word, which is always right.
God desires to give us wisdom–we just have to ask! (James 1:5). That doesn’t mean we won’t have challenges, but if we are applying His wisdom, we’ll come always be in His perfect will, hence, our decisions will be perfect. Perfect doesn’t mean without tribulations, rather we are walking in God’s perfect will for our lives (See Romans 8:28).

BCU 
Thank you so much for this detailed breakdown. I most definitely see myself in these different kinds of fools. I realize that most of the time, I was trying to manipulate or get my way somehow. This way of acting and living is most definitely not from God. I’ve suffered because of living according to my own “wisdom”. I’ve hurt others by running my mouth and/or speaking against them. I’ve lived in squalor because of my foolishness. I love that you said that we now might have “moments” of foolishness, but we don’t walk in it. Praise God for that!!! Studies like this help expose us so we can repent and also become equipped to wisely share with others when we recognize foolishness tripping them up, too. This is awesome! I can’t wait to share. I love the new look of the site, too!

Hey Angel!
I thank God the infographic was a blessing to your heart and call to action! Amen to the fact we will have foolish days, but they should NOT be foolish ways! I’d love for you to share–we have to sound the alarm on this thing. No need to practice and reap the consequences of foolhardiness, as we both know, right? 🙂
Thank you so much and God bless you for your faithfulness in stopping by!
Love,
BCU
p.s. Thanks for letting how much you like the new and improved version of the site! 🙂 I’m digging it myself! Lol!!!
