| 0:00.0 | Life is full of choices that are either constructive or destructive. |
| 0:05.3 | Here's Dr. Vanessa Ellen. |
| 0:07.1 | Wisdom is, in order to build it up, I've got to seek truth, live truth, think truth, believe truth, versus tearing it down, acting in my unbelief systems. |
| 0:17.9 | This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast with Nancy DeMoss Walgam. Author of Lies, |
| 0:23.2 | Women Believe, and the truth that sets them free. For July 28th, 2020, I'm Dana glad we're able to continue a conversation we started yesterday with Dr. Vanessa Ellen from Houston. |
| 0:43.5 | You're the chair of the Women's Ministries Department at the College of Biblical Studies. |
| 0:49.2 | The College of Biblical Studies. |
| 0:51.4 | And I was so fascinated by our conversation yesterday. I wish we could just sit |
| 0:55.4 | and talk for hours. But you've been working hard here at Revive Our Hearts for the last couple of |
| 1:00.3 | days. It's been wonderful. And so I'm just glad we were able to snag these moments to sit down and have |

| 1:24.4 | but a foolish woman tears it down with her hands. Now, we know we're not just talking |
| 1:30.4 | about a physical house here. And we're not just talking about the home that we live in. That's |
| 1:36.8 | certainly a big application there. But the church is a family, too. It's a home for the people |
| 1:43.6 | of God. |
| 1:59.5 | And I think we both could see in our own lives and in those we minister to ways that when we're wise, women, that our homes are even our workplaces, our relationships, they're built up, they're strengthened, they're encouraged, they prosper. |
| 2:01.0 | But when we're foolish women, |
| 2:06.5 | we can be really, really destructive. And not just women. The same could be said of men. Exactly. But that verse specifically talks about a wise woman. So let's just pick up kind of where we left |
| 2:12.7 | off yesterday. And what are some of the ways we started into this that a woman can get wisdom that can build up her environment? |
