CURRENT SERIES
Judges is a dark story, full of flawed people living in a deeply flawed society. It is about real people, and it is about the real God, who is relentlessly loving to unlovely people; who continually rescues people from the consequences of their own flaws and failings; and who points forward to the flawless Leader and Savior who He will one day send.
And it shows us how to live as God’s people in a society which offers a dizzying array of alternative “gods” to worship. So today, surrounded by the gods of wealth, celebrity, ideology, and achievement, we need this book!
As we look back on our lives, what do we want it to say on our tombstone? One path will describe us as “a generation grew up that did not know God or what He had done for Israel” (2:10). Prayerfully approach this book with the determination to have you, your family and your church described like this instead: “The Spirit of the Lord began to take hold of him”(14:3).
