Key Verses:

Overview:
In Episode 25, Greg Carroll explores how Proverbs 25 encourages humility, self-control, and quiet strength as the true marks of lasting influence. In a culture that prizes noise and visibility, wisdom teaches us to live differently. Whether in finances, leadership, or relationships, lasting peace and credibility are built through faithfulness, discretion, and disciplined living.
What You’ll Learn:
Why humility opens doors that pride can’t
How thoughtful words build trust and credibility
Why patient consistency outperforms quick ambition
What it means to build financial “walls” through discipline and boundaries
Why influence is cultivated in quiet obedience, not public applause
Take Action:
Reflect: Are you letting God promote you—or trying to prove yourself?
Evaluate: Where have you lacked discretion or given in to self-indulgence?
Rebuild: What area of your financial life needs clearer boundaries or restored control?
Pray:
“Lord, teach me to walk humbly, speak wisely, and guard my life with self-control. Use my quiet obedience to make a lasting impact.”
