The Wisdom Pyramid

What we depend on for wisdom has a big impact on our lives.

The internet and social media can expose us to wise perspectives but if we rely on them for our wisdom intake, we will have an unhealthy diet.

Brett McCracken’s book The Wisdom Pyramid illustrates this idea through the helpful allusion to the food pyramid. What is our digital diet? What are putting into our minds and souls?

There is great wisdom to be found in Scripture, the church, nature, books, and culture. The internet and social media should lead us to these sources. By themselves, they should make up only a minimal portion of our diet.
