When strength is used for self instead of service, hearts break and wisdom calls us back.
In 2 Samuel 13, the lingering consequences of David’s sin unfold through Tamar’s tragic story—revealing what happens when desire, deceit, and power collide.
This episode invites sober reflection on consequence, compassion, and the call to steward strength for the good of others.
Drawing on David’s family story and Psalm 51’s backdrop, we discover that true power protects, serves, and restores rather than takes or controls.
Whether you lead a home, workplace, or ministry, Wisdom Calling helps you see power through the lens of stewardship—not selfishness—and points you toward integrity, empathy, and healing.
