Write this Down! with Dot Bowen

When Solomon became king, he knew he’d need God’s wisdom to help him rule. In this episode, Dot and Cara talk about what it looks like to ask God for wisdom in our own lives, and then to have the faith to act while knowing God has given us what we need and He will accomplish His plans. They also explain how idolatry held many of Israel and Judah’s kings back from fully serving God, and they reflect on the ways idolatry can show up in all of our lives. Episode RecapStart by writing down 1 Kings 3:7-10 (0:12)There were very few good kings in Israel and Judah (4:36)It’s easy to let other things become idols, even when we’re trying to follow God (7:51)Solomon knew he’d need God’s help to fill David’s shoes (18:05)When we ask for wisdom, we then need to trust that God has given it (20:43)Just because we’re not seeing the outcome we want doesn’t mean that we made the wrong decision (24:55)God’s plan cannot be thwarted (28:16) Send us an email to let us know what you’re learning - hello@dotbowen.com Find Dot Bowen on Instagram and Facebook
