Let’s be honest—most of us are better at talking than listening. But Proverbs 18 reminds us that real wisdom shows up not in how well we speak, but in how well we hear. In this episode, Pastor Jeremy gets real about what it means to be a better listener as a man of God—in our marriages, friendships, leadership, and everyday conversations.

Together, we’ll look at what Proverbs says about listening before speaking, seeking understanding over being right, and how learning to hear others can actually change the way we lead and love.

If you’ve ever been quick to interrupt, slow to hear, or just want to grow in being more present with the people in your life—this one’s for you.

Scripture Focus:
Proverbs 18:2 & 13 – "A fool takes no pleasure in understanding… If one gives an answer before he hears, it is his folly and shame."

Grab your coffee, open your Bible, and let’s talk about what it looks like to listen with purpose.
