The Bible Project Daily Podcast The Wise Wife of a Foolish Man (1 Samuel 25: 1-42)
Some women carry the hidden burden of being married to men who are, spiritually speaking, breathtakingly foolish. I don’t mean foolish in the modern sense of low intelligence or lack of education. A man can have degrees up the wall, a sharp mind, a successful career… and yet be spiritually blind.
Scripture calls that man a fool—not because he isn’t intelligent, but because he refuses to think in the ways of God. But to be fair, that condition isn’t confined to men; plenty of women fit the same description.

Yet this story is not preserved simply as an ancient marital case study. You do not need to approach it from a position of gender to learn from it.
So, let's reflect and allow God to use this narrative to cultivate wisdom in us. Because if you don’t pursue wisdom… You will drift into folly. But if you would like to be wise? Then listen to the Spirit’s voice in this chapter….
