The journey of every child unfolds against the backdrop of opposing calls—one beckoning towards wisdom and the other towards foolishness.

Each day presents a pivotal decision—follow the path of foolishness, leading to destruction, or embrace the call of the wise in God's word, paving the way to favor and life. Will our children treasure wisdom and fear the LORD, embarking on the path that leads to the joy of walking in God’s ways?

Only through God's Spirit will they discover the joy of knowing Jesus, setting them on the transformative journey of wisdom, marked by awe for His greatness and goodness.

Wisdom Quest helps children discover biblical wisdom and the fear of the Lord in a Vacation Bible School, Backyard Bible Club, or camp setting
