How to be an Idiot: Tell God What You Want and Refuse to Let Him Give You What You Need

How to be an Idiot

A host of different possessions, occupations, relationships, activities, and ambitions can easily lure us into the belief that, with them, we have found true life. But, the true, fulfilling, rich life that God yearns for us cannot be found anywhere but in Him!

About 'How to be an Idiot'

The ancient Greeks had a word for it - "idios" - someone consumed with his own interests and opinions. It's the origin of the English word "idiot," someone we regard today as lacking wisdom or good judgment. And, interestingly enough, the Bible has a lot to say about idiots, either painting vivid portraits of individuals relying on their own reasoning or laying out specific warnings about the danger of pursuing our own instincts and desires when they run contrary to Gods Word. In this 12-part series Todd Wagner helps us recognize our innate tendencies to reject wisdom and provides practical insight for living blessed, purposeful lives.
