Bunny Proverbs returns in a sunny churchyard garden, where Sage, a gentle brown rabbit, sits beside an open Bible near a small stone chapel. This episode asks a simple question: where does true wisdom begin? Sage turns to a single verse to find the answer and invites us to remember a time we were sure we knew better than someone offering advice.
“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”
Proverbs 1:7 (KJV)
The fear of the Lord here is not terror but deep reverence, the humble recognition that God is God and we are not. Solomon places it at the very beginning of knowledge, because pride shuts out the lessons we most need, while humility opens the door to them.
We have all ignored good counsel at some point. The invitation in this verse is to open our hearts again, to God’s guidance first and to the wise people He places around us. True wisdom is not only knowing more; it is letting God shape our hearts and guide our steps. Sage returns on Friday, October 16, with the next episode.
