Kootenai Church Special Sermons

Colonel Jeff Williams draws from Job 28 and other Scripture to consider the fear of the Lord as the beginning of true wisdom. Emphasizing that human achievement cannot attain divine understanding, he underscores how wisdom is granted only by God's grace. The fear of the Lord is presented not only as the start of knowledge but also as a guiding light for all of life’s vocations and decisions.

  • Q2: Did going to space change your relationship with God or affect your faith?
  • Q3: (From the back of the room, summarized as a general question about applying wisdom in a fallen world, possibly in government or vocational settings.) Can Christians effectively live out wisdom in corrupt or difficult environments?
