Welcome to the Paul Tripp podcast, where pastor and best-selling author Dr. Paul David Tripp connects the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life.

Something exists inside the heart of every human being that creates disaster.

Whether it be a screaming infant, an anxious teenager, a demanding spouse, a critical boss, or

a corrupt politician, it's the foolishness of sin.

In today's episode, Paul teaches on four types of foolishness and only how a divine appearance

liberates us from each. Here's Paul.

Well, what I want to talk to you about is one of the disasters of sin. Because I'm deeply persuaded

that unless you are willing to acknowledge the handprint of

these disasters of sin on you, you won't esteem grace.

Because whenever you minimize what sin does, you immediately devalue grace.

I want to talk about something that's inescapable for all of us. It's the thing that makes children, little children, think they know more than their parents.

I have a 15-month-old granddaughter.

And already, she's expressing this stuff.

Last time we were with her, we spend every Monday with Lily Grace.

We love Lily Grace.

She grabs my hand.

She leads me across the room.

She points to a chair, and she does this.

She's saying, I am Lord, you're not.

Follow me.

Sit and do what I tell you.

She can't even talk yet.
