  • Day 2798 Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 113:1-9 – Daily Wisdom
    Feb 16 2026
    Welcome to Day 2798 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2798 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 113:1-9 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2798 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day two thousand seven hundred ninety-eight of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title of today’s Wisdom-Trek is: The Hallel Begins – The High God Who Stoops Low Today, we cross a significant threshold in our journey through the Psalter. We are stepping into Psalm One Hundred Thirteen, covering the entire hymn, verses one through nine, in the New Living Translation. To understand the shift we are making today, we need to look back at the trail we have just hiked. For the last two days, we have been trekking through Psalm One Hundred Eleven and Psalm One Hundred Twelve. Those two psalms were a matched pair—twin "acrostic" poems that functioned like a classroom. They taught us the "A to Z" of God’s character and the "A to Z" of the godly person’s character. They were wisdom psalms, designed to be studied, pondered, and memorized in the quiet of the study hall. But today, the bell rings, and the class is dismissed. We are moving from the study hall to the Festival. Psalm One Hundred Thirteen marks the beginning of a special collection known as the "Egyptian Hallel" (Psalms One Hundred Thirteen through One Hundred Eighteen). These six psalms were, and still are, the liturgical soundtrack of the Passover Seder. They celebrate God’s deliverance of Israel from Egypt. In Jewish tradition, Psalms One Hundred Thirteen and One Hundred Fourteen are sung before the Passover meal, and Psalms One Hundred Fifteen through One Hundred Eighteen are sung after the meal. This means that on the night Jesus was betrayed, just before He went to the Garden of Gethsemane, He likely sang these very words with His disciples. So, as we read this psalm, we are not just reading poetry; we are stepping into the Upper Room. We are hearing the song that fortified the Messiah for the cross. The theme of this psalm is a magnificent paradox. It presents Yahweh as the God who is Infinitely High—seated above the nations and the heavens—yet who insists on stooping Infinitely Low to lift the poor from the dust and the barren woman from her grief. It is the theology of the Great Descent. So, let us lift our voices with the choir of history and begin the Hallel. The first segment is: The Call to the Servants: A Praise Without Borders. Psalm One Hundred Thirteen: verses one through three. Praise the Lord! Yes, give praise, O servants of the Lord. Praise the name of the Lord! Blessed be the name of the Lord now and forever. Everywhere—from east to west— praise the name of the Lord. The psalm opens with the signature shout of the Hallel: "Hallelujah!" ("Praise the Lord!"). But notice...

  • Day 2797 Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 112:1-10 – Daily Wisdom
    Feb 13 2026
    Welcome to Day 2797 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2797 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 112:1-10 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2797 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2797 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title for Today’s Wisdom-Trek is: Wisdom-Trek: The Mirror Image – The "A to Z" of the Godly Life. Today, we are stepping into the second half of a magnificent diptych. We are trekking through Psalm One Hundred Twelve, covering the entire poem, verses one through ten, in the New Living Translation. To understand the beauty of this psalm, we must remember where we stood yesterday. In our previous trek through Psalm One Hundred Eleven, we studied the "A to Z" of God. That psalm was an acrostic poem—meaning each line began with a successive letter of the Hebrew alphabet—celebrating the perfect works of Yahweh. It described Him as "gracious and compassionate," a Provider of food, a Keeper of covenants, and a God whose works are "truth and justice." Psalm One Hundred Eleven ended with a bridge: "Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom." Today, Psalm One Hundred Twelve picks up exactly where that verse left off. It is the "twin brother" of the previous psalm. It is also an acrostic poem, following the exact same alphabetical structure. But there is a twist. If Psalm One Hundred Eleven was the "A to Z" of God’s Character, Psalm One Hundred Twelve is the "A to Z" of the Godly Person’s Character. The psalmist is doing something profound here. He is using the same vocabulary, the same structure, and even the same phrases to describe the believer that he used to describe God. This is the biblical doctrine of the Imago Dei—the Image of God. We become what we worship. If we fear and delight in a God who is gracious, compassionate, and righteous, we will eventually become gracious, compassionate, and righteous ourselves. So, let us look into this mirror and see what a human life looks like when it is fully conformed to the image of the King. The first segment is: The Foundation: Fear and Delight. Psalm One Hundred Twelve: verse one. Praise the Lord! How joyful are those who fear the Lord and delight in obeying his commands. The psalm begins with the same shout as its twin: "Hallelujah!" ("Praise the Lord!"). But then it moves immediately to the human subject: "How joyful are those who fear the Lord..." (Literally, "Blessed is the man who fears Yahweh"). This connects the dots perfectly. Psalm One Hundred Eleven ended with the "fear of the Lord" as the beginning of wisdom. Psalm One Hundred Twelve begins with the "fear of the Lord" as the source of joy. But notice the balance: "...and delight in obeying his commands." This destroys the idea that "fearing God" means being terrified of Him. In the Ancient Israelite worldview, fear and delight are not opposites; they are partners. "Fear" is the recognition of God’s ultimate authority

  • Day 2796 – Theology Thursday – Top 10 Logical Fallacies That Lead to Bad Theology and Misguided Evangelism
    Feb 12 2026
    Welcome to Day 2796 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theology Thursday – Top 10 Logical Fallacies That Lead to Bad Theology and Misguided Evangelism. Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2796 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2796 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Our current series of Theology Thursday lessons is written by theologian and teacher John Daniels. I have found that his lessons are short, easy to understand, doctrinally sound, and applicable to all who desire to learn more of God’s Word. John’s lessons can be found on his website theologyinfive.com. Today’s lesson is titled Top 10 Logical Fallacies That Lead to Bad Theology and Misguided Evangelism. Theology and evangelism must be grounded in truth. Scripture calls us to worship God with all our heart, soul, and mind. When Christians lean on faulty reasoning, they twist the Word of God and open the door to error. Logical fallacies are not harmless; they often lead to heresy, false conversions, and a compromised witness. The gospel is too precious to be diluted by sloppy thinking. Here are ten common logical fallacies that regularly poison Christian teaching and outreach, along with why they are so dangerous.
    1. Appeal to Emotion
    God created us with emotions, and they can be powerful tools in responding to His truth. But when emotions become the foundation of a theological claim or evangelistic appeal, the message becomes distorted. Frightening people with hellfire or guilt-tripping them into “saying a prayer” is not preaching the gospel. It is manipulating feelings. This may produce outward responses, but it rarely produces genuine repentance. The Holy Spirit uses the truth of the gospel to convict and transform, not emotional spectacle.
    2. Straw Man
    We are called to represent the truth faithfully, and that includes how we handle opposing views. Creating a caricature of someone else’s beliefs just to knock it down is not discernment; it is dishonesty. Saying, “Calvinists believe God delights in sending people to hell,” or “Arminians think they save themselves,” misrepresents those views and violates the command to bear true witness. If we cannot refute what someone actually believes, we have no business opposing it at all.
    3. Slippery Slope
    There is a difference between wise caution and irrational fear. When someone says, “If we allow this doctrinal disagreement, we’ll abandon the gospel next,” or “If women teach children, we’ll soon have drag queens in the pulpit,” they are not contending for the faith. They are avoiding honest discussion. Scripture warns against compromise, but it also warns against making false accusations. We must examine each issue on its own merit, not use fear tactics to shut down thought.
    4. Circular Reasoning
    The Bible is self-authenticating, but it should not be defended with circular logic. Saying, “The Bible is true because it says it is,” may sound spiritual, but it avoids meaningful engagement with the reliability of God’s Word. Scripture invites examination. God has confirmed His Word through history,...
