So much knowledge. So little wisdom.

I watched a video of a lady explaining why she believes submission has no place in marriage...and how that scripture is being misinterpreted.

In her words, “If a man leads, we are no longer equals.”

Eric Gugua shared the video, and even he was lost for words.

And honestly...this is the age we live in.

Everybody reads a thread.

Everybody follows a relationship coach.

Everybody has something to say about marriage.

Knowledge everywhere…

but wisdom? Barely a drop.

The Bible whispers something weighty in Ecclesiastes 9-17:

 “Better to hear the quiet words of a wise person than the shouts of a foolish king.”

...................................

Knowledge in marriage is simply information.

It’s books, podcasts, gender wars, TedTalks, “hot takes.”

It can quote statistics.

It can discuss dynamics.

It can define submission, leadership, partnership, boundaries.

Knowledge is not the problem...because we need it.

But knowledge ALONE builds walls of opinion,

not homes of peace.

...................................

Wisdom in marriage is application.

Wisdom asks:

Is this helpful? Or just loud?

Does this build us? Or divide us?

Does it reflect Christ? Or simply my ego?

Wisdom sees leadership not as control, but as responsibility.

Wisom sees submission not as inferiority, but as partnership and trust.

Wisdom remembers that equality is not sameness.

Two pilots do not fly one plane.

Two heads do not make one direction.

Beautiful things require order...not oppression.

Knowledge says, “No one leads me.”

Wisdom says, “If God designed it, there is life in it.”

Knowledge says, “I know my rights.”

Wisdom says, “I know God’s way.”

Knowledge builds theory.

Wisdom builds marriage.

And one more thing...

"Better to have wisdom than weapons of war..." (Eccl. 9:18)

Because knowledge can win an argument.

Wisdom wins a relationship.

May our homes be built, not by brilliance alone,

but by understanding, discernment, patience, humility...

by the gentle voice of wisdom that still works even when culture disagrees.
