The Principal Thing with Wes and Ashley Miller

Wisdom Is a Know Thing, Not a Feel Thing

In Episode 7 of The Principal Thing, Wes and Ashley dive into Proverbs 1 and talk about why wisdom is something you’re meant to know, not just hear about or feel. This episode explores the difference between knowing and feeling, why wisdom builds confidence, and how to pursue it until it becomes real in your life. This week’s Principal Step: Go after wisdom until you know.

Stop Begging, Buying, and Bartering for Love

Not every relationship in your life is meant to stay, and not every connection is built on wisdom. In this episode, Wes and Ashley talk about one of the most important (and often hardest) areas of life: relationships. From friendships to partnerships to your relationship with God, wisdom must be the filter that guides who you allow into your life and how you engage with them. This week’s Principle Step: Assess your relationships

This One Filter Will Change Every Decision You Make

What if one simple shift could change the way you think, speak, and make decisions? In this episode, Wes and Ashley talk about one of the most practical ways to live out wisdom: using it as a filter for every area of your life. From your thoughts to your words, your relationships to your schedule, wisdom isn’t just something you have, it’s something you use. And when you don’t filter your decisions through wisdom, even good intentions can lead to the wrong outcomes. This week’s Principle Step: Apply the filter.

Wisdom Is an Action , Not Just an Idea

We all want wisdom, but wanting it isn’t enough. In this episode, Wes and Ashley talk about what it really means to pursue wisdom, not just as a concept, but as something you actively seek, receive, and apply in your everyday life. This week’s Principle Step: Walk it out

If You Can Own It, You Can Change It

Today, we’re taking the next step after awareness, and it’s where real change begins: ownership. It’s easy to recognize what’s not working. It’s harder to take responsibility for it. But here’s the wisdom principle: what you don’t own, you can’t change. This week’s Principle Step is simple, but powerful: own it. Don't carry shame, take back control.
