About this listen

In this episode, we consider William Perkins’ classic insight from "The Art of Prophesying" (1592): "the fear of God is the foundation of all true wisdom." We explore how holy fear is not servile dread but reverent awe, leading to obedience, humility, and freedom from the fear of man. This is a call to cherish the fear of the Lord as the root of faith, repentance, and holiness—and to walk in it daily.
