Do you know the difference between wisdom and understanding?

 

You know those churches that have the cutesy movable-letter signs out front? I saw one the other day that read: “Wisdom is understanding what’s important.”
 
First off, why is that in front of a church? It is not from the Bible. It appears to be a quote from a brain-science text entitled,Wisdom: From Philosophy to Neuroscience, by Stephen S. Hall.
 
Why can't churches see what they are doing? How is it possible they can read 2 Timothy 4:3, and not realize they are fulfilling that prophecy themselves?
"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires."
