b"If you don\\u2019t yet, you will soon sense an acute need for wisdom. You\\u2019ll take a job you never should\\u2019ve taken, hire somebody you never should\\u2019ve hired, date somebody you never should\\u2019ve dated.\\nOften, the older you get, the more you worry. Because the older you get, the more you see how important wisdom is, how difficult it is to gain, and how your life absolutely blows up when you make choices without it. Many centuries ago, Solomon became king of Israel at the age of 20. When he did, he got wisdom, and he exercised wisdom in a way that can teach us a great deal about how we can get it ourselves.\\xa0\\nIf we take a look at this narrative, we\\u2019ll see 1) the need for wisdom, 2) the anatomy of wisdom, and 3) the essential principle of wisdom that runs all the way through it\\u2014the heart of wisdom.\\nThis sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on October 5, 1997.
