We'd love to hear from you. Text us.
Today we embark on our journey through the book of Judges. Judges is one of those books preachers kind of tiptoe around. It’s a violent book. All its supposed heroes are deeply flawed. Some are fairly degenerate, yet God used them to deliver His people - though sadly God’s people quickly stray away into deeper & deeper levels of sin, suffering, & subjugation. Judges is a book that throws a spotlight on just how low we can go when everyone does what is right in our own eyes. There is a lot to be learned from this book in our post-Christian age. We live in challenging days. Sin that only used to hide down back alleys under the cover of darkness now struts down the street in broad daylight. We, like those in the day of Judges, lack true heroes. The cultural icons of our age seldom embody humility or morality. We live in a day when wrong is celebrated & right is castigated. So far have we fallen that simply sharing the love of Christ is seen by some as hate speech. Friends, How Did It Come to This?
