(Scriptural meditation begins at 2:29.)
On Being Wise as a Serpent, but Blameless as a Dove.

Today's episode considers the narrow line between acting out of fear--which leads to foolish results, and acting with wisdom and prudence, which leads to excellent results.
We’ll consider Jesus's command to be as wise as a serpent, but as blameless as a dove--since we are, indeed, sheep among wolves--some of whom are wolves disguised as sheep!
