Wise Guy: The Two Kinds of Wisdom in James 3

Who is wise? Who’s got the answers? Who knows how to live the good life? Before you can answer the question “Who is wise?” you need to clarify which kind of wisdom you are talking about. There are two: the kind of wisdom that helps you get what you want and the kind that helps you become who you are meant to be. The first kind is what many people prefer, even if it destroys their relationships and leaves them empty. The second kind is what all people need. It’s ironic: the people who choose the second kind of wisdom usually get what they want and want what they get.
