Welcome to Unlearned Wisdom! A gospel-centered podcast by me, Johnny Chang.
Every episode is a special lesson that I have learned through God, my pastors, and my personal life experiences. Everything I speak about can be directly applied to YOUR own life, today.
These lessons can’t be learned from reading a book or sitting in a classroom.
New episodes every Monday!
Enjoy and God Bless.
