This 11-episode, lab-themed series introduces children to the books of Job, Proverbs, Psalms, Ecclesiastes and Song of Songs, and gives a thorough, accessible overview of what they have to say about God and living wisely for him.
Doctor Folly is finally defeated by Stu Dent and Professor Wise in the Wisdom Lab! Being wise isn't about being clever and knowing lots, it's about being right with God and sticking with him even when times are hard.
In God's Big Book of Wisdom, we see that when bad things happen, God hasn't abandoned us. In fact, he cares for us so much that he has always had a plan to destroy sin, pain, and death through Jesus' sacrifice on the cross.
Doctor Folly is jealous of Professor Wise and tries to get rid of all the praise she receives! The Pharisees tried a similar thing with Jesus on Palm Sunday. They tried to shush the crowd and stop them from cheering Jesus, God's special king.
Doctor Folly mischievously tries to trap Stu Dent while Professor Wise is away! Sometimes we have people around us to rely on, but sometimes we don't. Whatever our situation, God is always looking after us.
Doctor Folly has a problem! She can't work out what the point of life is: is it about having fun, working, going on holiday or eating food? We can trust God to help us through each day, whether they're good or bad.
Stu Dent and Doctor Folly get into a spot of bother with some love potion! What does God's Big Book of Wisdom have to say about love and following our feelings? In the Song of Songs, we learn about God's love for us and how we should love other people.
In today's video, Job loses something much more important than Stu Dent's forgotten science formula: everything he owned, his health and his family. God teaches Job and us that's it's easy to think we have all the answers and are in charge. But in reality, only God knows exactly why things happen as they do.
The one place we can trust to find the truth is God's Big Book of Wisdom, which helps us unpack what's going on when we suffer, how sin fits in, whether we're being punished and where God is when things go wrong.
Professor Wendy Wise and Stu Dent take a look at the book of Job in God's Big Book of Wisdom. Sometimes, even when we live God’s way, our life can be very hard. But Job shows us that God is good and worth following even when life is hard and bad things happen to us.
Stu Dent, Doctor Folly and Professor Wendy Wise look at God's Big Book of Wisdom and see what it has to say about being lazy and working hard. God has designed us to work hard as well as rest in his world!
Meet Stu Dent, Doctor Folly and Professor Wendy Wise and join them on their quest for a wisdom formula! In God's Big Book of Wisdom, we learn that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10).
