Today’s podcast is the last in this 8-part series of Judges. And while we don’t have an official “judge” in this book what we do have is the revelation of just how vast sin runs and what happens to people…ALL PEOPLE when we follow our own hearts and desires. Continue reading Judges 19 – The Vast Impact of Sin
Psalm 125 continues with the “psalms of ascent” as the people of God go to Jerusalem. And while this short psalm is a psalm of hope it also reminds us, or at least me, of sin, brokenness, the power of evil, and yet the eternal hope given to God’s people. Continue reading Psalm 125: A Psalm of Eternal Hope
Today’s podcast looks at the end of the last judge in the book of Judges. It looks at a judge that is unlike all the other judges. A judge who was set apart, dedicated to God, and was told to live a life worthy of that calling. A judge who was drawn to Philistine women and lived a hard life.

Psalm 124 continues with the “Psalms of Ascent” as the people gather and sing on their way to the Lord. Continue reading Psalm 124: A Psalm of “What If?”
The story of Jephthah is an odd one. Tossed out by his people and yet here they stand before him in need of his leadership and saving.

Today’s podcast is the later half of Gideon’s work as the Judge of God’s people. In the previous chapter we have God’s calling of Gideon and really working with Gideon through is fears and weakness and doubt with God’s calling in his life but what we get now is the actual battle to remove the oppression. It’s a story of continued doubt and God revealing that HIS work is at play here and that Gideon doesn’t need to worry about his own strength…because God’s got this already. Continue reading Judges 7:1-25 Our Weakness and His Strength
