Knowing & Doing
Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do. (Kary Oberbrunner, author and motivator)
We sometimes joke about the scholar who has a lot of letters after his name (ThM, PhD. MD, for example). We may say that the more degrees they have, the hotter they think they are. Of course, they have earned those credentials, and what they have learned can be of great value. But only if the knowledge is applied and, perhaps shared with others, will it make a difference
Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and moral excellence with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control … The more you grow like this, the more productive and useful you will be … (2 Peter 1:5-6, 8)
