A House on Rock and a House on Sand

This podcast episode intricately examines the final teaching of the Sermon on the Mount, where Jesus emphasizes the vital choice between building one's life on His teachings versus worldly wisdom, illustrating this through the metaphor of a house on rock versus sand. The discussion draws rich connections to biblical themes, particularly the teachings of Moses and personified wisdom in Proverbs, while also exploring the deeper implications of folly stemming from the Garden of Eden narrative.
