Two Voices Are Calling You… Which One Are You Following? | Proverbs 9 Explained (Discernment, Influence, Decisions)
About this episode
This episode explores the contrasting voices in Proverbs 9 and the importance of discernment in decision making.
Every day… you’re being invited. Different voices. Different influences. Different directions. The question is… which one are you listening to? In this episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures , we break down Proverbs 9… a powerful contrast between two competing voices: One offers clarity, growth, and long-term stability. The other offers ease, excitement… and hidden consequences. Both sound appealing. Only one leads somewhere you actually want to go. It also exposes a deeper truth: You don’t just choose actions… you choose which voice gets to guide you. If you’ve ever felt pulled in different directions or unsure who—or what—to trust, this episode will challenge how you filter the voices around you. Because the issue isn’t a lack of options… it’s a lack of discernment.
