About this sermon
Prudence doesn’t get much love anymore. It sounds cautious. Boring. Overly careful. But the ancient world believed prudence was the hinge on which a good life turns. In this episode, John Ortberg reclaims prudence as a courageous commitment to reality. Not wishful thinking. Not emotional reaction. But clear-eyed wisdom that asks: What is really going on, and what is the most loving, skillful way forward? Drawing from Scripture, the story of Abraham Lincoln, and the biblical image of “the stars fighting in their courses,” this teaching invites us to trust that God is already at work in reality itself. The most prudent thing you can do today may simply be to face what’s real and take one wise step forward. 🙌 New episodes every weekday. 📲 Subscribe, like, and share to help others grow spiritually.
