<![CDATA[Foolish Things]]>God chose the foolish things of the world to confound the wise (1 Corinthians 1:27).

Welcome to Foolish Things.  Scripture tell us that the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to those of us who are being saved, it is the power of God (1 Corinthians 1:18).  God has chosen the foolish things of the world and weak things of the world, to shame the wise, that no flesh should glory in His presence (I Corinthians 1:27 & 29, KJV).


While Foolish Things Podcast is open to everyone, our primary mission is to create a space where woman feel especially supported and uplifted in a faith journey.  


Foolish Things objective is to proclaim the gospel to sisters in Christ, to inspire and support you in returning to your first love, Jesus Christ (Revelation 2:4). Share God's wisdom to increase your faith and sharpen your discernment. To encourage you  to remain vigilant in prayer, be watchful and be ready for Christ return. 


Previously known as The Darla Simone Experience, this new mission is still led by Darla Simone.   Visit us on foolishthings.org

Isaiah 66:8, which refers to a nation being "born in a day," is interpreted by some as a direct reference to Israel's sudden establishment, while others view it more generally as symbolic of restoration and renewal. Ezekiel's vision of dry bones (Ezekiel 37) is often understood by dispensational and evangelical Christians as foretelling the re-gathering and revival of the Jewish people in their ancestral land, though Jewish interpretations typically emphasize spiritual renewal rather than political statehood. The parable of the fig tree in Matthew 24:32-34 is linked by certain Christian theologians to Israel's restoration, with the belief that the generation witnessing Israel's rebirth will also see the culmination of "end-times" events.

As Jesus said in Matthew 25:13, "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour." To the Bride of Christ—the body of believers—we are encouraged to keep our lamps ready and filled, actively preparing for His arrival by walking in faith and obedience. We must be attentive to the guidance of the Holy Spirit, discerning the times wisely, because deception may mislead even those chosen by God. We must remain vigilant and alert, for the signs of our Savior's return are all around us.

God chose the foolish things of the world and the weak things of the world, so that no flesh should glory in His presence (1 Corinthians 1:27 & 29, KJV).

Foolish Things objective is to proclaim the gospel to sisters in Christ, to inspire and support you in returning to your first love, Jesus Christ (Revelation 2:4).
