Proverbs 182 says, a fool takes no pleasure and understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.

Today I'm going to share why pursuing a well-educated mind is not only helpful and not being the fool,

but is actually part of being a faithful Christian.

Plus, I have a few practical tips to help you jumpstart your own journey of growing and understanding

and wisdom.

Welcome to Sheproos Faithful, the podcast to help you think biblically and live faithfully.

I'm your host, Lauren Lushak. Welcome to the show.

Hey, I have missed you.

I have missed hanging out on the podcast.

I certainly took a little break this summer and it has been really refreshing and really

wonderful and actually full of some sweet surprises.

For example, we got to see some family, both on my side and on my husbands, that we

rarely get to see. And so that was super special. And then our cat had kittens. I might have

mentioned that on here. And they all got their homes. And it was so sweet and wonderful to kind of

have summer of kittens. And then finally, I don't know, beginning of June, my husband and I

teamed up with another couple here in town and we're like, let's put on a Christian classical

home education mini half day conference. Why not? right? And we actually probably started planning it in

July and then by the first weekend of August. We were filling up some seats and doing some

workshops on a Christian classical education in the home. So it was really good time. And actually,

today's podcast episode kind of is referencing some

of my talk. Although, you know, you look back and I was so nervous. I didn't know these people.

I haven't talked. Like I talk in the microphone frequently, but it's to myself in a room just with me.
